At her home in Hertfordshire, England, Mary Crabb displays the 1941 photo featuring her as a baby, surrounded by the Canadian soldiers who saved her life. 

Mary Crabb was sitting at her living room table in suburban Hertfordshire, England, staring into a laptop.

"Hello," she exclaimed with a smile and a hint of nerves as she greeted the man who was staring back at her.

"Hello, how are you?" the man replied from 5,000 kilometres away.
And so began a conversation 77 years in the making, the culmination an emotional roller-coaster for Crabb that took off again in recent weeks.
"I've cried many times," Crabb told Harry Curtis, the son of a Canadian soldier who helped save her life within hours of her birth in 1941.
