Image description

In a tearful reunion in Taipei, Australian 18-year-old Aimee Butler (R) hugs her biological mother, Yen Kan, 40, (C) of Kaohsiung in southern Taiwan, as her adoptive mother, Sue Butler (L) looks on September 29. Soon after Aimee's birth in 1980, Yen, who was unmarried and had little money, handed the girl over to an illegal adoption ring that arranged her placement with Butler and her husband, leaving no official records. Aimee's curiosity about her Taiwan roots intensified in July amid publicity about another Australian girl tracking down her Taiwanese birth mother. A search followed and DNA tests confirmed Aimee's blood ties to Yen. JKP/CC/ME
