At the age of 55, a woman named Lindamae Lawelawe Carillo Maldonado discovered the truth about her identity. She was born on the Island of Moloka’i, where people suspected of having Hansen’s Disease were isolated. Lindamae was among the many children taken away from their mothers at birth and placed for adoption. Her journey of discovery sheds light on a little-known chapter of Hawaiian history.
