Courtney B's DNA Surprise

Everyone has the right to know where they come from. They deserve to know their family history, stories and traditions. They have the right to know where their features come from and who else shares their aptitudes and interests. And just as importantly, or may most importantly of all, they have the right to know their medical history.

In this week’s episode, Courtney shares why her discovery wasn’t a surprise to her. It wasn’t particularly upsetting, either. But what has brought up some frustration and anger is the fact that her discovery uncovered important medical information.

She shares how she learned the truth, what happened when she confronted her mother, and how she’s exploring relationships with her newfound family.

Thank you for sharing your story, Courtney.
