Shauna Harrison knows that every morning she could wake up to learn she has a new sibling.
In the past two years, she has already gone from living her life as an only child to discovering through a DNA testing service that she is one of 30 people that share the same biological father.DNA testing services have become increasingly popular in recent years. While they have provided insights into family history and hereditary conditions, there have also been many cases of unexpected results such as catching a serial killer and making surprising connections among living relatives.
"I remember having a physical reaction to my computer, thinking 'What am I doing? Do I want all of this?'"'I have never seen anyone with my eyes before'But once she finally met up with some of the people she never expected to meet who share her DNA, Hale found things that fascinated her: similar interests, a shared math-mindedness and like mannerisms."I kept side-eyeing him" Hale said of a brother who sat next to her at her first dinner with the siblings.
