New York City, Jan 20 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A couple had to wait for 23 years before their baby who was kidnapped at birth could be reunited with them.

It was a touchy moment when Carlina White finally met her real mother and father.

In a case of moving from frying pan to fire, Joy White and Carl Tyson took their daughter to the hospital emergency room when she was just nine days old due to a fever. The 4th day of August 1987 visit turned disastrous when a mysterious woman who posed as a nurse ran off with little Carlina.

Her identity was changed to Nejdra Nance. She lived with a new family in Bridgeport, Conn and was later taken to Atlanta where she grew up. She however became suspicious about her identity when she was in her late teens.

To satisfy her curiosity, she decided to trace who she really was. The search took her to the registry of missing children. After searching for sometime, she managed to contact her family and later contacted them.

The police have now been notified about the incident and they are looking for the woman who took Carlina from the hospital.
