Imagine waking up one day and finding out the man who you thought was your biological father wasn't and everything you once believed to be true was a lie. What would you do?

This is the gripping story of how I learned through forensic DNA the true identity of my biological father after more than fifty years. An unexpected visitor was the key that unlocked the mystery behind his identity and his eight children I never knew existed. This cross-country journey helped me to find closure, redemption and peace.

Many people have similar stories to mine. I wrote, Divided A Memoir of a Family I Never Knew, to help me heal from the pain, guilt, shame and hurt that can be associated with finding out the truth about your biological family. Never let circumstances that are beyond your control dictate your future. Take hold of the wheel and steer your life in the direction you want it to go. It's never too late in the game to change directions.

There is something profoundly powerful about stories that come from lived experience. They remind us that while our paths may be different, the essence of what we seek-purpose, connection and meaning-remains universal. As you turn the pages of this book, prepare to be moved, inspired, and perhaps, see your own story reflected in the narrative. This is not just the author's tale, but a reminder that we all carry within us stories worth telling. In this memoir, truth and vulnerability are the guides. May it stir something within you.
