When I was 32, my twin sister began having odd heart issues and had to see a few specialists. Of course, doctor visits like this include a lot of questions about family history.
It was then that my mom decided to inform us that we were conceived via artificial insemination, and our parents had kept it from us all that time. She knew nothing about our biological father or his health history.
I was totally blindsided. The next week was full of weird emotions and an odd existential crisis. Since then, it’s been no big deal and a source of a lot of jokes we make now, but it sure was weird to find out as an adult. © beatnikteach / Reddit
