My Adoption 

I don't know why my Pinned post disappeared because I changed management, but I guess I will re-post this. Also I had responded to so many comments under this video over a 1000, and sadly those replies are all gone as well. Anyways Something I didn't say in the video was that regardless my parents were going to adopt another child. My mom's health had worsened hence why I didn't get a sibling. I was 6 years old when I joked I don't want a brother, of course I WAS 6! I was ready to share everything, but my parents. Sometimes kids aren't ready for another child, but when that child comes they just become ready. Hopefully that explains it.

Your mum telling us how she used to ignore you when you called for her just so she could hear you say 'mama' again brought tears to my eyes!

Just yesterday I watched ur house tour & I was thinking u are so lucky now I know u are really lucky

“i would purposely ignore her just to hear her say ma” *IM SOBBING* 😭💓

Love your story. I'm also adopted. I am from South Korea. I was abandoned at 6 months. I was born with albinism. I was adopted at age 2. My opportunities here in the US have been great. I'm 41 now have my own family and I get to serve full time in the ministry as s Pastors wife. God is good. Thanks for sharing your story , it's beautiful.

The word "parents" doesn't mean the people who made you the word "parents" means the people who love and care about you and would take risks for you that's what I think the word "parent" means.

Your video showed up in my recommendations and I'm so glad it did. Your story was so touching and inspiring. Your parents are seriously amazing! ❤️

I loved hearing your story! I adopted 3 of my kids and I'm always amazed when I hear people say "I could never do that". Adoption is hard, but it's also one of the most beautiful displays of compassion and love. ♥️ Your parents are precious!

Adoption is a very Nobel thing to do. People who do such thing I have the highest respect.

My husband really wants to adopt a baby girl also, i want to have a biological baby as well, but after hearing this i think for us, adopting is something we are seriously going to consider.

So inspiring and uplifting, even though I know all about it, it was so nice to hear!

She literally is a God's gift to her parent's.

So I m also adopted when I was 6 hours born my real mother left me on road at night so my adopted parents were passing out on road and both saw me on road so they stop there bike take me with them to direct hospital bcoz it's was very rain out side and in my lungs all water were come so I was in serious condition so in hospital it tooks 6 days to recover then my parents dicided that they want to adopted me in there family bcoz they also don't have any child so now I m very thankful to my parents they adopted me. And saves my life thank you so much 😀😀😀😀😀

Whenever someone says I look like my siblings I am always aware of the fact that I m adopted but honestly it makes me sooo happy ..

Your parents hearts are made of gold❤️

Your dad is the most inspiring man I think I’ve ever seen.

You are the most lucky daughter ever and your parents are angles "God bless u"

I just don't understand why there's dislike some people. anyhow, I salute your parents.

please hug your mum and dad for me!!!

This is so beautiful. I am just 24 and watching this made me even more sure that I am going to adopt one day. Especially for a country like India that is still developing and have a huge population, nothing could be more thoughtful and amazing than adopting a kid and giving him or her a happy and successful life. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Even i will one day adopt a baby girl. And i have already talked to my parents and my fiance regarding this... And that one day will surely come very soon... Because i Believe if every couple who are enough capable of giving a good life to a child..both emotionally and financially...should adopt atleast one child... And if this really happend...there will be no more orphanages... In this world...and there will be no child without parents... And this world will become the most Peaceful in real terms... Because happiness is not just being yourself happy...it is on seeing....and making others happy....love you Tia...i.hope to meet u someday...in my life...Insha Allah

LOVE this ... great video...I was literally in tears when your mom talked about becoming a mother and wanting to hear you call her mama repeatedly x

"My god .... is my dad" that's so sweet 🌸💕🙏🏻

It's so beautiful yet strange that any adopted child starts resembling either of the parents. You look exactly look like your mom

This has made me cry. Your very lucky and your parents are living legends 🙏

Love your story and your parents. Also your dad is a local Toronto icon and legend!

Hey Tia, I am adopted too. My parents couldn't get pregnant and so opted for adoption. All I know was about my birth mother is that she was a teen when she got pregnant with me and she had to give me away. My parents were told that I was born in the orphanage itself. Both my parents used to live in Doha, Qatar. My mom told me that she had come over to Mumbai and saw a beautiful little girl. She loved her dearly and really wanted her. But because of some rules she and my dad had to go through some course in and while they were learning to be new parents, the child that they wanted was taken by another couple. They waited for around 2 years more until they got a call from the same orphanage saying that they had a lucky baby girl waiting just for them. Due to official reasons my parents couldn't come to see me or the other girls. They sent my Aunty (my mom's sister) and her Husband (My Uncle) to decide on whether they should take me or not. My Uncle, saw me and instantly connected to me. He said he just stood there and was playing with me. He knew he just wanted to take me home. Soon all the paper work was done and on 8th December, 1993 I was given a house, a family and a name. Because of a lot of legal reasons, my parents couldn't take me back with the to Doha until around 1995. But my aunt, my uncle and my cousins and their kids kept me company and they would even et me talk to my mom and dad on the phone every day. Finally, in March, 1995 I was on my first ever flight heading to Doha. Like you, I was also malnourished as a baby. Since I was born in July, and the facilities at the orphanage weren't all that good at the time, me and a lot of other babies contracted pneumonia. Many of these other babies started to die one by one and I was the only infant/new born who survived. I was nicknamed "lucky". Most people say that you shouldn't tell your kids that they are adopted until they were 18. But my parents made it a point to instil this thought in me so that I wouldn't have to find out from some one else. For the first 4-6 years of my life I weighed 10kgs only (P.S. My first words after "mama" and "dada"). To add to my parents pressure, I had a very small appetite and would always end up puking before I even finished my entire plate. At age 3, my parents took me to the doctor, for my regular check up and to ask about my weight and basic things like that. They were told that I have Thalassemia minor and that I would have to take care of my health because along with that I have a very weak immune system. At age 6, on a vacation back in India, I woke up one winter morning with my right elbow stuck in an L-shape. I could barely move it. This started happening every day. Once we returned back to Doha, it still continued, this worried my parents even more and we rushed to the hospital to find out why this was happening. My parents and I were told that I had Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. Since that day up until I was 13 years old, I had to go every month to the hospital for regular check ups and I had to get my blood tested every month too. If I was not responding to medicines (which happened a lot), the un-responding joints in my body had to be given an injection, right on the bone with a needle that was somewhere between a 0.5mm to a 0.7mm. More if it had to be given on my knee. I saw tears in the eyes of my mother as she helped me learn to walk again. I started to curse the day I was adopted. She wasn't my mom. She didn't have to go through all of this.There were many times back then when I thought that she could just send me back and exchange me with a healthier baby. She could've easily just given me back. One day I asked her why she she suffered through it all. Why didn't she take me back to where I came from and just left me there. What she said to me was like a slap on the face. A slap filled with a lot of love. "I never even thought of it". Today. after watching your video I asked my mom the same question again. She looked at me and said, "You didn't come into this world from me. You came for me. You are God's gift and I would never return His gift". She saw me tear up and she wanted to cheer me up so she said "Plus, I didn't have the receipt." I must admit, that was a good joke, but one with a lot of love. I am 23 now and I will forever be grateful of these four beautiful souls I call my parents, my aunty and my uncle.

It’s not about blood relations It’s about having relationships that are beyond just words 🏠😍🥰

If only every abandoned child had this luck... Beautiful.

Omg your dad is a legend here in toronto! This is such an amazing story. I'm also a younger female who was adopted out of country & brought to toronto! Sending you love.

😢Beautiful story. You are a blessing to them & them to you. I am older than you - I have learned that "family" isn't always blood related, it is only the people who treat you as such.

I don't know how I ended up here, but her parents are the cutest and purest soul.. Much love and blessings to them..

The affection and joy her family holds along with her is impeccable❤️,so warm and cozy,it’s amazing.

I'm. in tears...I'm just so happy for you...my mum.and dad didn't want a girl and when I came the love wasn't there...but I'm truly happy for you god bless you and ur family xxx

if the world can have more people like your parents ! it will be a better place

Everytime I watched like this, children who were so lucky with their adoptive parents, I felt so jealous. I am also an adopted child, my real mom is our housemaid in my foster parents. Unluckily I didn't have a lucky life like yours. My adoptive parents got 3 kids aside from me and I am the 3rd child in the family. It is way different treatment when I was there, a lot of pressure and suicidal thoughts or leaving the house. Everytime I do some sorts of mistakes my mom almost killed me. Example, I steal like money knowing, I am still aren't aware of my actions, coz I am a kid. My mom would burn my hand or hammer my hand. If I tell lies or take blames from my other siblings, she will have me kneel down on salt "like me squat for hours, until my knees bleed". I am a slow learner, my mom's patience is just too short so if I don't get my lessons at once, my mom would hit me with arnis(a wooden stick) and you would see me go to school with bulky legs and bruises, where only my grade 3 teacher got a concern of me to always take me to the hospital. Those days, in my young age I WANTED TO DIE FOR GOOD. I always runaway from home, but they can always see me, and remembered one time, my mom sending me out of the house with no clothes, when I was in grade 4. Those bad memories when I was younger continued until I reach university. I even worked for this family when I was in grade 6, selling Bread on streets, and one time I gave up and told my mom I wont do it "she told me I dont have the rights to stop working, if I really do care about the family." Seeing my other siblings happy living compared to mine was devastating in my heart. It doesn't stop there, many things had happened in my life, which I regret. One thing I am thankful of is my adoptive mom taught me how to be strong, to read and write. She gave me education, until grade 6. I did the rest by my own and a little help from my real mom. I found my real mom when I was 22 in facebook, we are not that close, coz she got her own family already. Now that I am 30, I am somehow satisfied to where I am now. I am now a teacher here in Thailand. My name also have an indian name KRISHNA

Aunty and uncle just deserves an award😭❤ Blessed😊.

Ahhh your parents are angels!! I'm so happy you got a happily ever after 💕

Beautiful words bought tears to my eyes ! I work with orphans and run some orphanages and you are blessed to have been given the chance to find happiness and love .stay blessed !

I saw your video years ago and I was so in love with you and your family. My parents just told me I was adopted last night and I looked for your video again and I just have a completely different point of view. Thank you , I’m Punjabi to and this video makes me feel so blessed and thankful.

Absolute respect for your parents. I’m amazed that these kinda people still exist in today’s world. Such pure souls.

This brought me to tears :( I was also adopted & people would always make fun of me for it & saying negative shit about my parents not wanting me. I'm glad you're telling this story it's very inspirational

This was the most beautiful story! I'm 25 and have wanted to adopt since I can remember. Literally from the time I was like 7 years old. I can't wait for the day I get to meet that child that is out there for me. This is the coolest thing. So glad your parents got to adopt you! What a blessing! 💕

I m crying watching this video! Ur gratitude n love for ur parents is irreplaceable! Ur parents r the most beautiful human beings I've come across! God bless them

Beautiful story! I can connect with you emotionally coz i was also adopted when i was 3 months from an orphanage. I have 2 year old son from normal pregnancy and we wish to adopt a baby girl in a few years. When someone asks me why i want to do so, I give the same answer that your father gave in this video. We are blessed indeed!! 💓💓

my parents are adopting from China. a little boy 3 years old , he has holes in his heart just as my dad did when he was a kid . my parents did not care if he had a medical problem because he is God's son. we are going to get him around April. so excited : )

Tia! Don't know how I found this video, never knew about you 15 minutes before. But to be honest, praying for your parents, all praise and regards for them. Regards from Toronto.

Star family with 3 heroes and A class strong bonding, golden hearts and sea of love. Wishing all of you infinite blessings🥰

This is amazing the love of your mother. I started crying when you said "whoever she is , she is my daughter" wow , what a strong woman.

Thank you for spreading a beautiful message about adoption. I've know that I can't have kids for a few years now and can't wait to adopt in the future. Since then I've noticed that some people are very obsessed with wanting a kid that looks like them etc. Stories like yours are important to let people know that adoption is awesome and beautiful and just as full of love.

Your mom is beautifully natured reminds me of my mother. I’m sorry your mother is struggling with her health and inshallah things will get easier. But your mom is always smiling alhamdhulillah. An your dad is so sweet Such a beautiful story and Allah bless you and your family with ease, peace, unity and good health. Ameen Sultan (London-Wimbledon) X

Your parents are noble souls, they are the superheroes this world needs! Thank You for sharing your amazing journey and story. It rekindles faith in humanity and belief that there is more good than evil in the world.

this is video popped up on my recommended list and i immediately clicked on it. 10 minutes into the video i subscribed to you. you seem like such a beautiful soul and i really loved watching this video. lots of love from india

I lost my dad when i was 5 years old and still pray god please bring my dad to me just one day i want to see him and hug him Now i am 47 your story make me happy and make me cry❤

This is the most touching story. I am thinking of adopting in the next couple of years and this story is just such a confirmation. I love this!!

Ur father is amazing I wish he stays happy and healthy

I am so happy that you found parents like that. Not even my Dad who is biologically my dad wants his own daughters. I cried because there are still men out there like your father and I'm honestly so happy for you.

That's real SIKHISM. NO DISCRIMINATION IN WOMEN AND MEN

Imagine the people that gave birth to you saw this video.they would regret it

What a beautiful story Tia! God has a plan for each one of us, and I'm so happy to hear you found your parents 🤗

Your parents are legends 💜

Thank you for sharing your adoption story with us, it's BEAUTIFUL! God bless you and your family!

10:24 My heart melted to see your amazing hearted parents

Honestly the best story I've ever heard online. Hats off to your parents 🙏🙏👌👌 and you are the most loving daughter to them .. all the best🤗🤗

I want to this but no man in my life agree with this , that’s why I stay single .i really think there are so many kids in this world we can give life .

Loved the way she shares her story with so much passion, love and confidence, all thanks to her awesome parents and the parenthood they have shown while upbringing her! ❤️❤️

I am a doctor...i really want to adopt a baby girl...but my in laws are not in favor...my husband is also a doctor and i thought he would understand but he laughed when i told about my desire for adoption ...he said he will never support me for such a rubbish idea...he is a nice person but sometimes our thinking don't match...i wish someday my dream come true and he agrees for adoption

Omg your dad is Nav Bhatia , The superfan!!! He is so amazing ! God bless you and your family 😊

The only algorithm I love is youtube algorithm . Pushing gems like these so that we can get inspired by the hero families like this . Thanks for putting this up much love and regards to you all 💕✨

You parents are absolutely beautiful people for what they have done and the life they have shared with you. Let me just say while I don’t know you, you come off as very humble and genuine. This seems like the workings of how your parents have brought you up.

That “mamma”video is so cute. 🥺🥺

OMG tia.... I am in tears... God bless you and your family

Inspiring and an amazing story to hear. Keep on spreading the positivity sis!

Your dad sounds like a very wise man, and both your parents sound so sweet & kind. What an amazing thing they did.

Heads up i am adopted to and i have a similar story got a bit emotional when i heard your story but its awesome and trust me my life is also change really like to meet you in person when i visit canada

How beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Your parents sounds like absolutely amazing people. I wish the world had more like them. It’s wonderful how you are able to see and appreciate the people they are and the life you have - and that all deserve that.

This was a suggested video this morning. I am so glad that I watched it. So happy for you and your family. 😍😍😍

This is such an admirable story!! Loved it. Love the thought of your parents “every child is the same”!! ❤️❤️❤️

Tia no matter if you was adopted we will still love you ❤️

Your parents are angels! I'm in tears

That small clip of you dancing and your dad being so into it is amazing! 😍

You are a huge inspiration to me. I hope you succeed in your acting career and achieve all your goals.

This brought tears into my eyes. You are so lucky to have wonderful parents who love you so much. Sometimes our real parents don’t love their children like the parents who have adopted children. It just goes to show it’s not about who gives birth to children and who does not.....It’s about who loves and nurtures the children as a real parent should. ( Nurturing , loving and raising a kid is greater than just giving birth and raising it without love and care)

You parents are so wonderful! So rare for Asian cultures to adopt a child, let alone a girl, willingly. I love what your parents have taught you and I love how much to you look up to your parents :) beautiful bond between a daughter and her parents.

Such beautiful parents :) God bless your family

Tia didi, I can’t explain how lucky I feel u r to have such incredible adoptive parents. Not many adopted children get such a blessed and luxurious life, u are a really lucky woman and I am really inspired by your story, u are truly a really woman and I really feel touched by your story didi ❤️

World is a better place because of those two people and even better for you to share it to the world. Kudos to all three of you.

god bless your parents and god bless YOU. this really melted my heart!!! ❤

This is a great story!!😭 Your a really brave and young girl to make a vid abt your story and I'm really proud of what your parents did and the step they took.. Adoption is a big step to take but your parents were as brave as you are to take this step and raise you as a child😭😊 I was really happy to hear this story... It made my day😄😊😘

I’m sorry your beginning was not the greatest but I’m happy it will be ending with happiness ❤️

I love your video so much, it brought tears to my heart. I gave a child up for adoption, I lost my house and my job, the dad ended up being abusive so I left, I was homeless with nothing and knew I wanted more for him (the baby). He has a wonderful family and I think he is just as happy as you are. It really warms my heart
