<p>For 30 years, Dr. Becker searched for his lost daughter April Becker-Antoniou. He’d hired private investigators, been scammed by people claiming to be his daughter, and spent between $30,000 and $40,000 trying to find her.</p>
<p>Of the many attempts to find her, it was a simple website he’d created in her name that put an end to the thirty year wait.</p>
<p>Five days ago, Antoniou Googled her own name and found the website her father had created.</p>
<p>On the site Dr. Becker wrote:</p>
<p><a href="http://thenextweb.com/2009/11/12/daughter-finds-father-30-yearsby-googling/"><img class="alignleft" src="http://stephenrobinson.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/picture-32.png?w=522&#038;h=249" alt="" width="522" height="249" /></a></p>
<p>She emailed him and Dr. Becker said he confirmed her mother’s maiden name, her birthday, middle name and some other specific details only his daughter would know.</p>
<p>On Antoniou’s Facebook page she writes, “you think I could have Googled that 7 years ago and saved myself the yearly torment. But, it all happens when it happens for a reason. I’m still in shock. I was at the point where I just figured I would never meet him. Glad I was wrong. And glad he was actually still looking, after all this time.”</p>
<p>Dr. Becker confirms he will not be seeking a DNA test. “I found my daughter.” Dr. Becker said. “I am finally complete.”</p>
