Maria Ifversen has been looking for her little sister for over 20 years: »I remember nothing from our childhood. Nothing. "

The vanity of being a Thalidomide child and missing an arm has held Maria Fage Ifversen back for years, but now she is stepping forward in the hope that someone can help her find the little sister she was separated from when they were sent from an orphanage in Bangladesh to Denmark.

"I do not remember anything. It is completely black. "

Again and again, 48-year-old Maria Fage Ifversen tries to think back on her first years of life.

She has always known that as a 6-year-old she was adopted to Denmark from the orphanage "Sister Benedict" in Chittagong, Bangladesh. But at Easter, she found out by a bit of a coincidence that she first came to the orphanage as a 4-year-old.

»Where have I been the first four years? I can remember nothing, and there is nothing in my papers, "she says.

The two following years at the orphanage, she also remembers only very few - but positive - bites from. But she clings to the hope that somewhere in Denmark there is a woman who can help her remember more. A like-minded person she has shared her first years of life with.
