Two people search for the sisters their mothers never wanted to place for adoption. Before Michael's mother passed away, she asked him to find the daughter she placed for adoption as a baby. Michael believes he matched with her on a DNA website and is desperate to find her. Years earlier, Melissa's mother told her about an older sister who had been adopted as a baby. Now, with her mother's early onset dementia diagnosis, Melissa is in a race against time to find her sister before it's too late.
