Woman finds long-lost son after 22 years thanks to facebook

A Czech woman has been able to find her son, who she had not heard from in 22 years, through the social networking site facebook, the news server novinky.cz reported on Friday. The woman’s son, who lives in Canada, did not believe she was his mother when she first contacted him. He said his father had told him that she died in a car accident. The young man had left the Czech Republic for Canada as a child with the woman’s former husband, a professional soldier. The woman claims that after the couple divorced, her son’s father had threatened to kill her if she did not give him custody of their child.
