I can only imagine how thrilling it was to see that videotape of her "before" and find the reassurance that she was loved and happy. <br/>My brother was adopted from Vietnam in 1975 during "Operation Babylift". He was 19 months old, and what details we have were very, very sketchy. I have seen archival footgae of the American soldiers loading the babies into the plane in Vietnam and watched in vain for my brother among them. I would love to be able to find something from his "before". Wow. I can only imagine how thrilling it was to see that videotape of her “before” and find the reassurance that she was loved and happy.
