Episode Summary: Cindy Ruff knows what it's like to be on both sides of adoption. As a child, she was given up by her young mother and placed into an adoptive family's loving home. At 18, Cindy herself became pregnant and made the tough choice to give up her first-born son. Heartbroken as she was, Cindy felt that she wanted to give him the same gift of a two-parent home as she had found. Though some called her selfish, she felt that wanting the best for him was the most unselfish thing she could have done.

The Searchers: Cindy Ruff - Twenty-two years later, not a day goes by that Cindy, 41, doesn't wonder what has become of her son. She asks herself the same question that many women who give up a child so: "Did I make the right choice?" Only Cindy's son can answer this haunting question. Will Troy be able to reunite them?

The Searchees: Dan Fallis - Cindy's son, now named Dan Fallis, never actively searched for his birth mother, although it has been on his mind; he just didn't know how to go about it. Dan is 22 and is married. He and his wife, Laura are expecting their first child in April.
