Waarom Eva de geboortedatum uit haar paspoort wil wijzigen: ‘Ik mis al mijn hele leven een identiteit’

2 januari 1981. Dat is de geboortedatum in het paspoort van de geadopteerde Eva Holst. Dat kan niet kloppen. Ze is een zaak begonnen om die ‘nepdatum’ te wijzigen. Omdat hij voor zoveel meer staat: ‘Mijn basis bestaat uit leugens.’

Eva Holst met haar honden: ‘Er moet in die tijd toch wel een ambtenaar zijn geweest die bij het zien van die steeds anders gespelde namen en geboortedata heeft gezegd: dit is wel een beetje een puinzooi.’ Beeld Marcel van den Bergh

Eva Holst wil af van de leugens in haar leven. Elke keer dat ze om haar geboortedatum wordt gevraagd – bij de bank, de doktersassistent, de verzekeringsmaatschappij – wordt ze eraan herinnerd dat de meest fundamentele informatie van haar menselijk bestaan ontbreekt: waar, wanneer en door wie ze op de wereld is gezet.

FERMETURE DU SERVICE ADOPTION

Médecins du Monde a définitivement fermé son service adoption depuis le 31 décembre 2019. C'est en juillet 2015 que le Conseil d’Administration a décidé l’arrêt de ce programme et l’accompagnement de la décroissance progressive de nos activités d’adoption.

En 30 ans d’existence, ce programme a mobilisé de nombreux bénévoles partout en France, une petite équipe salariée au siège et de nombreux correspondants nationaux dans les pays d’origine des enfants.

« 4 244 enfants sont venus de nombreux pays et 3 666 familles françaises les ont adoptés grâce à l'accompagnement de MdM. »

Nous avons inlassablement oeuvré pour que des fratries et des enfants à besoins spécifiques puissent rencontrer une famille, pour la promotion d’une éthique de l’adoption internationale et le respect des droits de l’enfant.

As a toddler, Lalita is adopted by a Lucerne family. At the age of 39, she traveled to India for the first time. The report accompanies Livia Lalita Zgraggen's search for traces.

An old man with white hair sits behind an old-fashioned reception desk. He lifts his head, his eyes behind the rimless glasses glimpse us. We say who we are and what we want. He looks a bit sullen, then shakes his head in the vague Indian way and picks up the phone. With a wave of his hand he signals to us to take a seat. We sit on a hard, cloth-covered wooden bench and wait.

It's quiet in the small room, the heat shimmers in front of the mosquito-screen windows. Somewhere a bird croaks, the hot air from the fan turns overhead. Along the wall are sacks of toys, boxes of washing powder, and other items; Presumably donations for the children here: It's 2 p.m., June 2018, and we are at St. Catherine's Home, an orphanage in a poor part of Mumbai (formerly Bombay).

He looks a bit grumpy, then wiggles his head in that vague Indian way and picks up the phone. With a wave of his hand he motions for us to take a seat.

It's quiet in the small room, the heat shimmers outside the windows with fly screens. A bird caws somewhere, the hot air from the fan turns above us. Along the wall are bags of toys, boxes of washing powder and other things; probably donations for the children here: It is 2 p.m., June 2018, and we are at St. Catherine's Home, an orphanage in a poor district of Mumbai (formerly Bombay).

The Indian sisters know nothing. Or is it?

Shortly after June Smith gave birth, a nurse at the Royal Women’s Hospital gave her two white pills.

She asked what they were for.

“The nurse said: ‘To dry up your milk’," Ms Smith says. "I said: ‘But I’m keeping him’. Her words were: ‘You will not be allowed to keep him’.

Fifty-eight years later Ms Smith, 77, and Lynette Kinghorn, 73, are suing the Royal Women’s Hospital and adoption agencies in the Victorian County Court for damages.

Their legal counsel, Shine Lawyers, says the two women objected to their children being put up for adoption and the medical professionals entrusted with their care should have ensured their wishes were respected.
