Christy McCay and I are cousins who didn’t know one another existed until we were adults, when our parents, full-blooded siblings, met for the first time. We talk about finding new family, the surprising role of genetics in shaping personality, and the importance of staying open and staying connected with family. We talk about adoption, about having kids and about losing our mothers, who both died in the past three years.
