A woman abandoned as a baby in the bathroom of a Burger King restaurant has tracked down the mother who gave birth to her 27 years ago.
Katheryn Deprill said she met her biological mother for the first time on Monday in the office of a lawyer after her appeal on Facebook was successful.
Ms Deprill said she felt "pure joy" and it was like "looking in a mirror".
The 27-year-old began her quest on March 2 by posting a photo of herself with a long appeal on the social media site.
She was pictured holding a sign saying: "Looking for my birth mother ... She abandoned me in the Burger King bathroom only hours old, Allentown PA. Please help me find her by sharing my post."
Ms Deprill quickly became known as the Burger King Baby after thousands of users reposted the picture and asked others to help in the search.
The image ended up being shared tens of thousands of times.
Ms Deprill was just hours old when she was abandoned, wrapped in a red sweater, in the bathroom of the fast-food restaurant in 1986.
She was raised by adoptive parents.
Now 27, she is a married mother of three - and said at the start of the appeal she had questions for her biological mother.
"Number one is, I would really like to say, 'Thank you for not throwing me away, thank you for giving me the gift of life, and look what I've become,'" she told the AP news agency.
But she added that she wanted to know "what made her do it? Why did she feel that she shouldn't leave me at a hospital? Was she going through a horrible time?"
She says she and her birth mum plan to have more meetings to get to know each other better.
