Enia quoted A Living Remedy by Nicole Chung
I'm sorry, Nicole, she wrote back. It's so hard to lose a parent. But it will be a comfort to see your father live on in your children.
I stared at the screen for a moment, uncomprehending, until the meaning of her words sank in. She doesn't know that Im adopted.
— A Living Remedy by Nicole Chung (Page 101)
that’s a mindfuck about being adopted that I honestly hadn’t considered before, yet it’s something my father lived with his whole life. there was no generic thread between my grandmother and me.
