KALAMAZOO, Mich. (via WOOD TV) — Mysteries within families are being unraveled at an unprecedented pace with DNA testing kits.
Products like Ancestory.com and 23 And Me are answering questions about genetic health risks and revealing relatives.
That was the case for Marie Bell of Richland, who was adopted at birth and grew up with loving parents and four siblings in Munster, Indiana.
As a certified child and adolescent trauma professional, Bell spends her days helping children learn how to deal with life’s challenges — a skill that paid off personally when her adopted mother gave her a 23 and Me kit.
Her adopted mother hoped Bell could find out more about her health. What she uncovered was a family she never knew.
Bell knew it was a possibility with the 23 and Me DNA test — she just never could have guessed it would happen so fast.
