M: Imagining growing up and never knowing that you had a sister and one day, finding out you have an identical twin out there. This very thing happened to our guest Elyse Schein.
W: That’s right. I was living in Paris. I grew up knowing I was adopted, (19) but it wasn’t till my early 30s when I sought information about my birth mother. And I got a letter from an adoption agency, saying my birth mother wasn’t looking for me,but I had a twin.
M: And what did you feel like when that kind of news came to you?
W: My life was raising before my eyes! So I came to New York where we were born,and I gave the native adoption agency a call and they said they would help me find her.
M: Is that common policy for the adoption agency to help hook up siblings?
W: It’s funny. It was such an unusual situation, and I don’t think there is any sort of policy about it. But back when we were adopted,it was not a common policy to separate twins. (20) In fact, we were separated into part to participate in a secret study.
M: People were studying in your upbringing?
W: Well,we were studied from the time that we went to a foster home before we were adopted.

But they didn’t know that their children were actually multiples.
M: It’s your guys’ birthday. Right?
W: It’s our 4 th birthday together.
M: Alright,both of you together blow up the candles. Best of luck to you!
