What would you do, think, or feel if that happened to you?
Sometimes our body fluids have a way of telling us something different than what we grew up believing about ourselves.
For instance, I was raised as a white person and have done a pretty good job of passing, though some of my features have indicated that I was not fully white.
I knew that I had a Native American heritage, specifically Cherokee ancestry.
My spit says otherwise.
According to the AncestryDNA test, I am 0% Native American and 0% Caucasian. The test indicated that I am 97% European and 3% Middle Eastern.
So, I am mixed, but apparently not fully the mix that I thought I was, at least not according to this test. The test also indicates potential error when it comes to Native American ethnicity, as I understand it. I am still holding onto that Cherokee heritage until I can find absolute proof that I am not part Cherokee.
And, the Middle Eastern bit is an absolute, total surprise!
