Family Secrets?

Sep 16, 2019 | The Professional Noticer

This week, Andy answers a question from someone who never met his biological father...but has known he was alive. 

30 years ago, our caller found out he was conceived after his mother was raped by her boss. His mother never knew he found out, and believed she was taking the brutal secret to her grave. He understands why she never told him, but he’s curious about this man—now 93 years old—and wonders if he should meet him or “let sleeping dogs lie.”

Tune in to hear what Andy sees as the three options in this situation — plus hear the incredible story of someone born from a similar situation that has gone on to saves lives all around the world.
