My twin brother and I, were adopted, at the age of 4years old, and as time passed, I was so full of questions,that to this day, have never been answered. I was always told,answered,which was reall no answer at all; whomever I was asking the question at that time,with a response, that really much of an answer at all;,which is why I ask thiss... I have discovered, that our adopted family, along with our biological family, are related to each, in the same way, that we are;. they are also related by blood to each other in "all the same familial" ways we are. So, who are we to "all" and each and everyone of them? It is reall hard to wrap one's mind around, let alone, what does that make you at all. Any insight would help a troubled soul, understand herself, a little more, and not to feel so digusted, about myself. Are there reasons I might, or should be concerned?, I really don't much, about any of those closest to me, about their medical histories

Ok...I don't even know how to begin to answer the first part and so I will just make reference to what I can. Feeling disgusted with yourself no matter who your family is, is never a good thing dear. Its a good idea to speak to someone about the way you are feeling because the truth is, maybe even after you have gotten answers, your self image will remain the same.

Perhaps you can do some investigation on your own in order to find out more about yourself and your background.

Hm.  You are challenging my tired head here. . .  what exactly are you saying?  That your adopted family is related to your biological family?  That your birth mother or father is somehow a relative to the mother or father that adopted you?  What relationship is it exactly?

Have you met your bio family then if they are kin to your adopted family?  

A sibling would have a very similar medical history but a third cousin would have less so.  So what the connection is wouldbe helpful.

It is hard when one is adopted.  Lots of questions and it would stink if you thought your adopted family knew more details about your bio parents than they shared with you.  That makes me wonder why they would do that.  If the adoption was distressing or something.  But I'm sure it creates a lot of emotion for you and your brother.  

Clarify and we'll see if we can help any more.
