Lindamae Maldonado

"The Lost Children of Kalaupapa"
In 1868, 8,000 Native Hawaiians suspected of having leprosy were forcefully removed from their families and sent to a leprosy settlement called Kalaupapa on the island of Moloka'i. Thousands of children who were born at Kalaupapa to parents with leprosy were taken at birth and many were given up for adoption. Lindamae Maldonado is a Lost Child of Kalaupapa and this is the story of her quest to find her birth family. Her story is not only hers. It is the truth that has haunted the lives of thousands of other Hawaiian children and their families. It is a story that is still unfolding, as the last remaining residents still living in Kalaupapa and their descendants try to reconcile the true identity of their families and their isolated pasts with the threat of what may happen to their refuge in the future.
