man calls in an adoption agency to know about his birth mother, learns the biggest truth of his life instead

Finding Him

“It was pretty disturbing. I mean, it was just an unknown. It’s like, ‘How could I find this person? Am I ever going to find this person? Is this person alive?’” continued Howard.

2 Years Later…

The man spent his two years looking for his brother. However, he could not get any clue about him. There wasn’t a single day he did not think about his long-lost brother. Many times he wondered if he would ever be able to find him.  

Closing Down

Just when he gave up, fate played its game. In 2000, Louise Wise Services was about to close down and one of its employees had just learned that she was diagnosed with terminal cancer. You must be wondering why are we telling you this.

Secret Out

The heavy-hearted woman had learned her fate and so she decided to bring some secrets to light. She decided to tell some of the children who got adopted out of the agency about their separated twin. Her decision was going to create chaos in the world.   

The Phone Call

One of the kids she called was Doug Rausch. Doug quoted her, “She goes, ‘I’m not supposed to do this. I can get in a lot of trouble, but I’m going to do it anyway.’ So I appreciate that.” “She said, ‘Well I have some news for you. You have an identical twin brother.’ And I was like, I literally almost drove off the road. It’s not something you ever expect to hear.” 

The Long-Lost Twin

The name of Howard’s long lost brother was Doug. Doug had permitted the agency to disclose his contact information and name to Howard. Howard reminisced, “I finally called him and we talked for a while and it was, you know, like I knew this person my whole life. It was amazing.”
