I have got nothing. No job, no place to live and I have no one to be with. Except...well...I do have DNA test results from a genealogy website. With close family matches. It’s probably a stupid idea. A total long shot, really... I’m going to go and find them.

I’ll do anything it takes to stand up for him - even if it costs me my job.
