After her husband’s death, Dorothy Weaver—a lifelong human rights lawyer—was swallowed by loneliness. One night, she took a DNA test on a whim, hoping to learn more about her roots.
The results stunned her: a 49.96% match with a woman named Michelle Simpson—listed as her daughter. When Dorothy demanded answers, the company told her she likely had an identical twin.
Through Michelle, Dorothy met Susan—the sister she never knew existed. Seeing her own face staring back felt like coming home.
Separated at birth, the two spent hours catching up on six lost decades. Both lawyers. Both loved red wine. Both had dogs named Max.
Dorothy soon became “Aunt Dottie” to Michelle’s kids, finally surrounded by the family she’d longed for. After years of fighting for others, she’d finally found justice for herself—a missing half made whole again.
