For 14 long years, Youxue spent searching for the birth parents she was given up by her Chinese parents when she was just a baby. The journey of reunion began in spring 2010 with the support of her adoptive mother and online forums where adoptees connected. With the help of a local radio personality and another searcher, they finally had more context to move forward, as Youxue's DNA matched two potential families.
However, the initial excitement was short-lived when she realized that the note left with the baby she was actually given up from contained information about her actual birth date - September 11th, 1994. Yet another false lead arose after receiving an email for her DNA had been accepted by China’s National Reunion Database in April 2024.
But then came a remarkable coincidence – yet another woman submitted her DNA to the same database just days later on July 14th. The names of her birth parents were revealed, and she finally met them in August 2015 after 14 long years of searching.

. I mean, think about it - the adoption process is already super complex, and then you throw DNA matches into the mix? It's a recipe for disaster... or so they say 
. Seriously though, the fact that Youxue had two separate DNA matches with similar info before finally getting the real deal must've been super frustrating 
.
. And hey, sometimes you just need a little bit of serendipity to bring everything together 
. It's like the universe was nudgin' her in the right direction 
.
i'm literally crying tears of joy for youxue!!! i can imagine how emotional and exhausting all those years of searching must have been but she's finally found her family 
14 years is forever, but i guess good things come to those who wait... i'm sending all the love and hugs to youxue and her birth parents - it's like a fairy tale come true! 
.
I mean, I feel bad for Youxue and all, but like, who gets all excited about finding their birth family only to find out it's not even the real deal? 
and yeah, another woman submitting her DNA on the same day is like, totally suspicious... sounds like they found each other or something 
Youxue's story is literally so inspiring! I'm getting chills thinking about her journey, all the hopes she must've had, and then that incredible coincidence that brought everything full circle 
. And the fact that it was another woman who submitted her DNA at almost the exact same time? What are the chances?! 
I'm sending all my positive vibes to her and her birth family - may their bond be super strong 
But at the same time, it's a reminder that sometimes life works out in unexpected ways. Fingers crossed they're happy and healthy now 
this is like something outta a movie! Can u believe it took youxue 14 YEARS to find her birth family? I mean, all those late night online forums sessions & DNA matches... what an amazing journey 
. BUT... that coincidence with another woman submitting her DNA just days later?
