In this monologue, Speaker A recounts being adopted at age three after their biological parents lost custody due to ongoing substance abuse. They describe a loving adoptive upbringing but a lingering sense of displacement and unanswered questions about their birth family. At 25, they finally connected with their paternal relatives, only to learn that both biological parents had already died, which caused profound heartbreak. The speaker describes how the surviving relatives shared stories about the deceased father, yet the speaker felt alienated and doubted their own connection to the family. Now, the speaker seeks DNA testing to obtain personal closure and to definitively prove their biological relationship to the family, aiming to end speculation and drama surrounding their identity.

Chapters

I was adopted at 3 years old. The reason I was adopted is because my parents lost full custody of me due to drug substance, drug use. They had about 2 years to get clean, and they never found the strength to do so. They never got clean at all. My adoptive mom was amazing. Childhood was beautiful, but I've always felt misplaced, and I've always just had questions about my biological family. 25 is when I got connected with my father's side of the family. That's also when I learned that both my father and my mother had already passed away by the time I found them. That broke my heart. Like, that was— it's still to this day very heartbreaking. Very heartbreaking. When I met my family, they kept running like stories about my dad and how he was there and what the things he would do, just describing him. It turned me off, and that really made my heart break. Even bigger. So now his family all of a sudden doesn't think I'm even related to them, and I'm here today to not only prove that I am, but to stop all the drama and cease the speculation. I also need the DNA truth for myself. For one, it'll give me closure, and two, it'll show my family like I am indeed his child.
