Share your DNA paternity test story.
Behind every paternity test, or other DNA testing service, there is a story. Whatever your situation, Identigene wants to help. Sometimes, it helps to hear from others who have used a DNA Paternity Test and learn from their experiences. If you've used the Identigene DNA Paternity Test Kit or other DNA testing service, please share your story with us.
When I was eleven years old, my mom told me that the man that I knew as my father was not really my father.
When I was eleven years old, my mom told me that the man that I knew as my father was really not my father. I was devastated, and too young to do anything about it.
I tried to find him a few times when I was in my teens, but to no avail, I could not locate him. I called some people but was quickly told that it was impossible. So years went by and I would just look in the yellow pages online, and do free people searches to get leads.
Well, one day I decided that I was going to pay for some information. All the information I had was second hand from my mother, and extremely limited to a name, and a possible old address. I paid for a list of 100 people with the same name, and only one listing was a possible match. I sat on this information for three months before I finally had the courage to make contact.
I wrote him a letter and sent him many pictures of me from the time I was a baby to present. He received my package the day of his father’s funeral, and gave me a call two days later. I am happy to say that he was very receptive to my outreach. He just wanted to make sure I was really his legitimate child with a DNA test. I purchased theIdentigene paternity testI was very relieved how easy they made it for normal people. I am also very pleased with how fast they worked to give me the results, a positive match to the man I thought was my dad.
Identigene gave me and my biological father the piece of mind we needed to continue on with our steps of getting to know one another. Thank you for confirming our relationship Identigene!! I am forever grateful!
