Jandali was the youngest of nine children in a prominent Syrian family. His father owned oil refineries and multiple other businesses, with large holdings in Damascus and Homs, and at one point pretty much controlled the price of wheat in the region. His mother, he later said, was a "traditional Muslim woman" who was a "conservative, obedient housewife." Like the Schieble family, the Jandalis put a premium on education. For generations, members of the family had gone to Istanbul or the Sorbonne to study. Abdulfattah was sent to a Jesuit boarding school, even though he was Muslim, and he got an undergraduate degree at the American University in Beirut before entering the University of Wisconsin to pursue a doctoral degree in political science. In the summer of 1954, Joanne went with Abdulfattah to Syria. They spent two months in Homs, where she learned from his family to cook Syrian dishes. When they returned to Wisconsin she discovered that she was pregnant. They were both 23, but they decided not to get married. Her father was dying at the time, and he had threatened to disown her if she wed Abdulfattah. Nor was abortion an easy option in a small Catholic community. So in early 1955, Joanne traveled to San Francisco, where she was taken into the care of a kindly doctor who sheltered unwed mothers, delivered their babies, and quietly arranged closed adoptions.
钱德里来自一个显赫的叙利亚家庭,是家里9个孩子中年纪最小的一个,他的父亲拥有多家炼油厂和其他多重产业,在大马士革和霍姆斯也有大量财产,还一度控制了那一地区的小麦价格。和席贝尔家一样,钱德里家族十分重视教育,好几代以来,家庭成员都被送到伊斯坦布尔或者巴黎索邦大学就读。阿卜杜勒法塔赫·钱德里就曾被送到一所耶稣会寄宿学校,尽管他是个穆斯林。他在位于贝鲁特的美国大学拿到了学士学位,然后来到了威斯康星大学,在政治学系攻读硕士并担任助教。 1954年的夏天,乔安妮和阿卜杜勒法塔赫一起去了叙利亚。他们在霍姆斯呆了两个月,乔安妮从男友的家人那里学会了做叙利亚的菜。他们回到威斯康星后,乔安妮发现自己怀孕了。当年他们都是23岁,但决定不结婚。乔安妮的父亲当时已经快死了,他威胁说,如果她跟阿卜杜勒法塔赫结婚,他就跟她断绝父女关系。在他们那个小小的天主教社区,堕胎也绝不是一件容易的事情。1955年初,乔安妮来到旧金山,被一名好心的医生收留,这位医生为未婚的准妈妈们提供庇护,帮她们接生,然后安排秘密的收养。
