Biological lineage gets tossed out the window when a child gets adopted.

That was huge problem for a friend of mine. He got hit by an 18 wheeler (we have no idea how it didn't kill him) and spent 2 years in a coma after some hardcore surgery. He ended having a rare blood type and his parents had look in the frosty parts of hell for a donor.
