Just after Mother’s Day, there was a happy story in the United States of a mother and daughter finally reunited after 50 years of separation. Coincidentally, the daughter grew up watching a situational comedy that her loving mother used to perform, the title of which is “That’s My Mother”.
The New York Post reported on May 9 that a California woman was reunited with her biological mother after 50 years of separation and discovered that her mother had starred in a sitcom she used to watch as a child.
Speaking to NBC’s “Today” show on May 7, Lisa Wright said of her mother, Lynne Moody: “I grew up watching my mother on TV and I didn’t even know it. “
Moody appeared on the television show “That’s My Mama,” which ran for two seasons in the mid-1970s and was a favorite of the adoptive Wright family.
Wright recalls, “That’s My Mama was our must-see TV show, and we would sit together every week to watch it. Who would have thought it? That’s My Mama!”
Although Wright always knew she was adopted, she didn’t look for her birth mother until she had children of her own. All she knew was that her biological mother had given birth to her when she was 18 years old.
When Wright was 54 years old, her son suggested that she take a DNA test to find her relatives. The test helped Wright find an uncle who told her that the family had been searching for Wright all these years and was also in contact with her biological mother. Wright and her mother, who both happen to live in Los Angeles, first spoke to each other several years ago and have only met since
Moody said she has no other children and has always dreamed of one day being reunited with her lost daughter.
Life is sometimes full of surprises, so whatever situation you’re in right now, don’t give up,” she said. Open the door to miracles and surprises and keep the faith.”
