[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I shared my story a couple years ago on here. I was gifted 23 & Me by my MIL as she thought it may lead me to find my birth father. My mom had refused to tell me anything about him. I took the test and was shocked to see 4 1/2 siblings pop up in my results. The real kicker was that 3 of them were on my mom’s side. Lots of messaging and digging later… my mom secretly had 3 boys after me and gave them up for adoption. She was in her 30s, never married. My adopted sister on my dad’s side and I worked together (and did ancestry) with cousin matches and found our dad’s obituary, which led to an older brother. It took me a very long time to process all the things and heal from my mother’s lies and the time denied with my siblings and deceased father. My relationships with all of my siblings but one are very strong, and I love that my kids have gained so much extended family as well.[/quote]
