I have recently found my brother, the last of my 3 siblings. I keep in contact with them by phone and e mail. I LOVE having siblings! I wish we lived closer, and in fact my sister did move up here for a while. (she got homesick and went back home)
I am happy where I live and don;'t want to move, and my sibs are settled in their lives too. Even sibs raised together can end up living 1000's pf miles apart.
I am trying to convince my first mom to move closer to me tho LOL |

my daughter is struggling with this. None of us can move but her little brother may be going to college thousands of miles away. She is not fairing well with this decision. |

I don't think I will ever be able to move to Korea to be with my bio family.
Yet another reason that I think IA takes way too much away from us. |

Without a question - YES.
Home is is about the people - the place doesn't really matter.
When you've lost most of your family - it's even more precious to hang on to whatever you may have left. |

as Lori A stated already...i am struggling with this. i desperately want my bros with me, but i cannot leave where i am. my aparents in not in the best of health and i almost lost my asister last year to breast cancer. my ties at this time are here.
but if things were different...i would go wherever i could to be with them. my brothers are my life. as much as i have gotten out of my reunion with lori, one of the best things is them. |

Yes.
I want to get to know my sister and I want my brother to know who I am. |

They are more than likely in the Philippines (I haven't found them yet) or possibly in Florida. But I have to say right now, I would do anything to move to California (I'm in VA) to be close to the brother I grew up with. |

I'd love to know if I have siblings.
As an adult adoptee now, I don't know I would travel/relocate/move in order to develop a relationship with my sibling.
There would certainly be frequent trips back and fourth to their location though, so I'd have the ability to get to know him/her! |
