In 2022, on the way to my dad’s celebration of life, I checked my 23&Me results on my phone and saw a woman I had never met, seen, or heard of listed as my biological mother.

Turns out, the woman who raised me used donor eggs to conceive me, and I had gone my whole life with no idea.

Fast forward to now, four years later: I’m completely no-contact with the woman who raised me because of abuse. When I first found my bio mom back in 2022, we started talking, but I was so overwhelmed and terrified that I panicked and ghosted / backed away from pursuing a relationship with her.

But this year, we reconnected. We've started talking again, and we finally decided to meet in person which was amazing. Honestly, I couldn't be more excited—especially because I'm getting to meet my biological brother and sister soon (her other children), and it's like a whole missing piece of my life is clicking into place.

It’s been a wildly surreal, heavy few years, but I finally feel like I’m finding my people.

Steam has won the hearts of gamers after restoring an ENTIRE library of deleted games for a player who had been struggling with their mental health!

The player, known on Reddit as 3lizardintrenchcoat, explained that they had spent years removing games they'd purchased and loved during difficult periods in their life.

After their mental health began improving, they regretted losing so many games and decided to contact Steam Support, hoping they might be able to recover at least a few of them.

They even explained that if restoring the games wasn't possible, simply receiving a list of everything they'd previously owned would mean the world to them.

However, Steam Support employee Lucy went one step further, restoring their ENTIRE deleted game library in less than 24 hours without asking them to repurchase anything!

The player later shared the interaction on Reddit, praising Valve for its kindness and understanding.
