Thank you guys for sharing another interesting session!!
Since the subject about DNA and ancestors was discussed I'd like to share something that could be a little bit related to this.
Two months ago I was having a conversation with the mother of a friend about something called ‘transgenerational doubles,’ I’m sure you won’t find anything about this subject on the internet using those terms since that’s a translation I did from its name in Spanish. Without going to much into details I’ll try to give you a general idea about this subject.
As my friend’s mom had a son with some health problems and it was impossible for doctors or psychologists to find anything wrong with him, she started to search for solutions on many different subjects, and consequently she found information about transgenerational doubles. Basically, you have to gather as much information as possible about your ancestors and also you have to know when they were born and died, and once you’ve done this and you also know about their lives, you proceed to search for coincidences between their birth or death dates and your birth date, you have to do this following a certain table and if there is a match it means that he/she is your double. The point of this is to see what aspects of this person’s life is repeating on your life or how it is affecting you. For example, this woman had a son who couldn’t talk, it was impossible for him to learn a word, and as I said she took him to many professionals without finding anything. And when she found this, she started to unveil some family secrets and discovered things she didn’t know about her ancestors’ lives, and consulting with her mother she found out that her grandmother had a very abusive relationship with her husband and instead of talking about it she would keep everything to herself. Following this table she saw that her son and grandmother were doubles, and amazingly after this he started to talk.
You can also find doubles in the people who come into your life, the grandmother of a friend (the daughter of this woman) met my grandmother at the hospital when both were about to give birth, hers had twins and mine had my mother. For some reason the nurses placed the three babies in the same cradle at the newborn nursery. And according to this table they are doubles. Then they met again in primary school till at secondary school everyone took a different way. Years later they met again in primary school but in this case the daughter of one of the twins and I were starting first grade there. And again, following this table we are doubles. We both find so many coincidences between our lives, if I have a problem with a family member she has it too with one of her family, and the weirdest thing is that most of the time is the same relative. Even our grandmothers died on a 23rd, the only difference was that mine died 6 months later. And our grandmothers were doubles too, which makes the thing even more bizarre. I could go on a on with the examples about this or about finding some similarities between ancestors and her life, mine or that of a family member.
I thought this could be related in how our ancestors’ life can influence our life. I don’t know if DNA may be completely related to this, I can make so assumptions, but it won’t go farther than that. Maybe we can find some coincidences between a certain disease on a family, the life of the people who have/had that disease and how it is related to that people’s life and if they are doubles. If it happens to be useful maybe it could work as a sort of compass, it may orient you to find some answers about certain diseases in a family, or to understand why you don’t like, let’s say, your sister. It could help you to know where to start.
I don't really know what to think about this information, even though I've seen many really weird coincidences, if I don't get something useful out all of this I don't see this coincidences as something important or useful. And at the same time, it's important to discard a lot of factors that may have an influence on a disease. Or in any other problem.
