100-year-old Minka Disbrow shows a photo of her, right, and her daughter Ruth Lee


In this Dec. 28, 2011 photo, 100-year-old Minka Disbrow shows a photo of her, right, and her daughter Ruth Lee taken the day they first reunited in 2006, during an interview with the Associated Press in San Clemente, Calif. Disbrow, who was raped at age 16, has lived to be 100 - long enough to meet the daughter she gave up at birth 77 years earlier and learn about the six grandchildren she didn't know she had.
