Nancy Womac spent 42 years wondering what happened to the baby girl taken from her at birth until she tearfully met daughter Melanie Spencer for the first time this year.
For 42 years, Nancy Womac held out hope that she would one day meet the daughter who had been taken from her at birth in a Tennessee hospital.
The home was advertised as a place for troubled children to learn discipline through the word of God, but according to court filings that would lead to the homes' closure, girls who lived there said they were physically abused and lived in fear. "I remember going into labor, and they just give me a shot and put me out," she said."I don’t remember having her. I don’t remember them wheeling me into the delivery room. I don’t remember nothing. She was then gone by the time I woke up.""She was my first born," she said."It’s something that you never really get over."
Just as Womac yearned to know about her daughter's life, Spencer had the same curiosity about her mother.
