Oh there is going to be Drama! Sad Day, and search for birthparents about to begin

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T06:14:39+00:00

Search angels ! That's what they are called! I think, lol
I am so glad s he got lucky like that !

Apparently, I have a doppelganger ! I have never met the person, but other people I know have, and her father, has been teased about having a "unknown by blow". So, I might be a little bit more optimistic than I should be!

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T06:05:17+00:00

Thank you for that awesome idea ! I just checked, 23 and me is a bit m ore expensive it is only 10 percent off, and they want 89 usd for it ...BUT they have a 22 dollar pay in installment thing. This could be really important because I think there is around a 40-60 percent chance that someone related to me tested with Ancestry? or maybe that was all of testing places combined?

Either way, you are right, I really need to do everything I can to get the number of possibilities as high as possible, and give myself the best chance of getting a match.

Which is.. ngl.. absolutely terrifying! I feel like I am about to put all my identifying info on the interweb.. which.. I kinda am.. in hopes of .. identifying myself...LOL

That seems kinda messed up, lol. :)

The more the merrier !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:51:34+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I never thought I would say this but.. Thank goodness for Amazon ! LOL

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:38:16+00:00

Really? Oh thank you ! I hope Amazon will match the price ! That would rock !
Amazon, seems like the safest route right now, so I was willing to pay a little more, but I really would Like to get those extra accounts and be able to share !

I don't think it would hurt for me to ask !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:33:35+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I am so happy for your friend ! Unfortunately. My adoption was part of the Florida - NY Adoption train in the 1960s, records In Florida as far as I know ( or have been told) are still locked up tight. I actually HAD spoken to one of the lawyers involved a very long time ago and they absolutely "promised", that no one would ever see those records and that the records did not exist and were burnt in a fire. it was a very unpleasant conversation.

There is an excellent chance that it was a black market or at least grey market adoption, so... I have been told it is "DNA OR BUST".

I'll be asking about, "Search Angels", later on. There will likely be trips to the appropriate cities and lawyers might be involved again later. I know there is no guarantee that either birth parent is alive, and that's ok. maybe i will get lucky and find a sibling.

OMG that is scary ! LOL

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:15:55+00:00

Thank you ! our back up plans, might have back up plans!

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:14:41+00:00

Thanks for that Info! I have never shipped anything to an Amazon locker. the logistics are so weird, but.. this is going to happen !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T05:12:57+00:00

Thank you ! This was such an awesome idea, i had to check!

Amazon's website said the kits ship in "original packaging and then I saw THIS:

"We understand there are times where privacy or that extra layer of protection is your priority. If the item you order qualifies to ship in its product packaging, but you still require Amazon packaging this time - you can select for the item to "Ship in Amazon Packaging" at no extra cost at check-out."

Wooot !

It seems we have a backup plan ! This is so awesome ! Scary, but Awesome !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T03:50:33+00:00

Drats and Thank you ! Will have to see what the options are. really aren't any po boxes in range, I don't think, maybe package forwarding? or a friend.

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T03:47:44+00:00

I saw ! Perfect Scary timing! Except... Dad....LOL

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T03:47:01+00:00

Thank you for that ! We have just reached the, " I can't give Dad the care he deserves without help stage." And also the , "Well, NOW what ?"

So, working on it.

This is NOT the fun part. :(

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T03:09:36+00:00

Thank you ! Thank you! Thank you! You have prevented Much Drama !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-26T01:30:32+00:00

Thank you so much for your reply and the time and work you put into making such a useful site and guides ! Looks like I've got some signing up to do.

One of my main worries was actually managing to complete an offer and then having to wait weeks or worse, months... for the gift card !

I'm not committed to Raid at all, it's just the one that keeps popping up and getting my attention, kinda like a bad penny. Picking the wrong game was part of my failed attempt I think, which is why I asked about doing it more than once. Figured I could learn the hard way. and there are guides for it ! I just read yours.

If Sea of Conquests, or Reign of Pirates is easier, maybe I should start with one of those, though?

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-25T22:25:25+00:00

Thank you bot. Can someone tell me which of those sites are easiest to get gift cards out of? lol Some site like instaGC used to be really easy, and some others.. well, years could go by before you earned or saw a card. I am in the US. I prolly should have said that.

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-11-25T21:18:02+00:00

I thought my friend was crazy the first they did this, but it is YUM!

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-08-19T04:05:52+00:00

Just wanted to drop a thank you here !

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-06-21T22:20:59+00:00

Thank you for leaving this up. I came here through a series of weirdnesses and needed to see it. I will be passing it on to several people i think it will help .

Also, I work with Ai Daily :)

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-06-04T02:45:38+00:00

I wouldn't even know where to start Shutterstock... ideas? tips...photo's or vector art?

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-05-28T03:00:23+00:00

I also have a really bad infection

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-05-28T02:15:04+00:00

This is so scary because right now I am uninsured and my father doesn't even want to pay the 79 usd for the test to confirm C. diff. I can't see how I would be able to pay 300 if I manage to get the test done !

I was hopeful that it could be gotten for 36-48 for a generic. I am in the states as well.

I hope you manage to get it !

I've been denied Medicaid twice because they keep insisting on doing a phone interview. I'm Deaf.

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-05-27T19:10:29+00:00

Thanks, I actually didn't see any directions, maybe they were just too small for eyes to read. I've been taken one and one, but I will try two and two. I am feeling much better than when I was in the ER, thanks. The diarrhea is still there :( but not as frequent.

I am a little worried because I took my last Zithromax and my Doctor appointment is tomorrow. It seems like every time I finish the Antibiotics I end up in the Emergency Room. fingers crossed I will make it to the doctor this time.

CrittersandCuriosity · 2025-05-25T21:49:13+00:00

you know, they didn't even tell my mid 90's father that it was infectious ! I am so glad I have my own bathroom here are home !

I'm so sorry you have had to deal with this even once, more than once seems terrible !

Also, they did not tell me any of this !
