“Your labwork looks fantastic, Darcy.” Dr. Mona Reyes smiled and sank
down onto the round rolling stool across from the exam table. “I can’t
believe it’s been two years since your transplant. Your kidney numbers are
perfect.”
Darcy forced her lips into a smile and hugged her arms over her green
shirt. “Time has flown,” she said. She wanted to believe those words, but in
truth, time had stopped eighteen months ago when her fiancé, Jace, died.
She sat up taller, steeling herself against the wave of grief that always
seemed to lurk at the back of her mind, waiting to drag her under. She
would never forgive herself for what happened to him.
The sound of Dr. Reyes scooting her stool over to the exam table jerked
her from her thoughts. She took Darcy’s hand in hers. “What’s on your
mind?”
With her dark hair, bright hazel eyes, and flawless, creamy skin,
Dr. Reyes had become like a second mother to Darcy since she’d been
diagnosed with kidney disease. Darcy was grateful for their heart-to-heart
talks, which always helped settle her nerves and give her a new perspective
on things.
“I always think of Jace when I think of the transplant. I’m so grateful for
him.” She sniffed and swiped the back of her hand over her eyes.
Dr. Reyes patted her hand. “That’s natural. You’ll always miss him and
love him. Just remember that he would be happy for your good health too.”
“I know you’re right.” Darcy tried to clear her throat past the lump that
swelled there.
“Do you want to talk about how you’re feeling?”
Darcy shook her head. She was certain her doctor had better things to do
—such as seeing more patients—than to hear about Darcy’s holding pattern
of grief, regret, and guilt.
She held her breath, then released it as the truth spilled out of her. “I’ve
been thinking about finding my biological mother.”
“I remember when you shared with me that you’re adopted.”
“My parents never hid that from me. And even though I love them and
am so thankful for everything they’ve given me, I can’t help feeling that
something is missing in my life. I wonder if I wouldn’t feel so hollowed out
if I found my mother.” She fidgeted with the hem of her top.
Dr. Reyes nodded. “I know you’re anxious to find out if your kidney
disease is hereditary.”
“Exactly.”
“Well, I might be able to help you.” Dr. Reyes wrote something on a
piece of paper and then handed it to Darcy. “My best friend is adopted, and
she contacted this not-for-profit agency when she wanted to find her
parents.”
“Thank you.” Darcy studied the piece of paper, where Dr. Reyes had
written down a website for an organization called Lost and Found. “I want
to know where I came from, but I just don’t know how to talk to my parents
about this without hurting them.”
“I think they’ll understand.”
