The notification popped up during breakfast. Sarah nearly choked on her toast. A match, a close relative! She couldn’t believe it. This was far beyond what she was hoping for.

The message was brief, but it spoke volumes: “I’m looking for you, too.” She couldn’t stop smiling. She knew what she had to do. She had to respond immediately!
