The shocking truth about my three dads
After finding out she was a sperm-donor baby, Eve Wiley was thrilled to meet her biological father. But she would make a discovery about her conception that appalled her.
Eve Wiley was 16 when she discovered she had been a sperm-donor baby. She was shocked, but also excited to meet her biological father as her own dad had died when she was young. When she met her donor father, the connection was instant - Eve started calling him 鈥楧ad鈥� and he even officiated at her wedding. But when Eve鈥檚 son became ill, she decided to look further into her medical history and find more family members by taking a home DNA test. What she discovered from her newly found half-siblings would appal her and eventually lead her to the Texas State Senate to change the law.
