Have you ever felt like you didn't belong? Imagine not knowing who you really are. That was my reality when everything I knew about myself was ripped away. My life was flipped upside down on April 7, 2001, one day before my forty-third birthday. I received the DNA test results that had answered a lifetime of questions. Everything - and I mean everything - I knew about myself wasn't true. I turned into my own private investigator, digging through records and interviewing nurses who worked at the hospital, where my life changed forever. It's a devastating and bizarre story, so out of this world that my life even garnered worldwide attention. The research and wisdom I have gained regarding trauma have given me hope and understanding.
