They were separated for almost 50 years. Sisters Tanya and Troy were very young when their parents got divorced.

When their parents decided to end their marriage, the two sisters also got separated from each other when their parents decided to keep a child with them.

They last saw each other in June 1966.

All those years, Tanya's father gave different reasons about her mother and sister. She was told that they had an accident to make her believe she is left with no family.

Troy was also made to believe that her sister became crippled and eventually died.

But the sisters refused to believe all these stories. It didn't stop them from searching for each other, together with the help of their families until the time came when they finally found each other after almost 50 years.
