Uprooted Quotes

“My Scotland-born grandmother moved at odds with society’s norms in her own fashion. Her eyes would often tear up when she looked at me and said, with a glow, “Miracle Child.” I felt desperately wanted and unequivocally loved in one side of my head, and depressingly angry at the violation and deceit in the other side of it.”
― Peter J. Boni, Uprooted: Family Trauma, Unknown Origins, and the Secretive History of Artificial Insemination
