]]> The adoption story of David Scotton will be told on the big screen on September 9th in the new movie Lifemark. David's story isn't one of an autosomal DNA test kit, but I thought it was a story worth sharing on DNA Discoveries because of the tagline, Stories of Finding Family.

*This episode does address the topic of abortion. It is not the intention of DNA Discoveries to be political, it happens to be a part of his story.
