together and stayed safe. Over time, he became a real
big brother to them all. My son is such a good person;
he never judged me at any time.
He was too young to understand, but when he grew up,
he went searching for his roots and found his biological
father. When he found him, my story about his father
was confirmed. He also found other brothers and
sisters—some younger, some older than himself. Now
he has become a handsome young man with a family of
his own. Blessings, my son.
One of my twins—had a kidney problem and needed a
transplant a few years after she came up. I was the first
to volunteer, but was turned down because I wasn't
healthy enough. My other twin also tried, without
success. One by one, we were turned down. Other
family members tried, but none were successful.
She ended up getting a kidney from a Chinese donor—
maybe it’s no surprise, since she was always craving
Chinese food.
