Despite the love they all shared as a family, her parents knew this news would be very difficult for her. They sat Lorna down at the family table and unfolded the story of Lorna's adoption. Her adopted parents described the orphanage they found her in, the other kids who longed for their own parents and the lack of information about her past. She had no recorded name, medical records or birth certificate, so she didn't even know how old she actually is because she doesn't know her real birthdate.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe news overwhelmed Lorna at first and she was speechless for a few moments.
