I did a DNA test in 2018 and found that my paternal Grandfather was someone other than the man married to my Grandmother at the time (1931). All family members have passed from that generation and my father passed in 1999. Since 2018 4 siblings of mine and 3 of my siblings children and 2 of my children have tested and I've found my father had 8 siblings he never knew about. 2 of his sisters are living and I now have a close relationship with one aunt and her daughter. DNA was a blessing for me, I know the results are not for some people. My new cousin and I spend a lot of time doing Genealogy research and both have large trees on Ancestry. We both have brick walls for a few Grandparents that are close enough in generations for DNA to help. That's my main use of Genetic Genealogy. I have subscriptions to all the major Genealogy websites in addition to DNA Painter.

That is awesome that you can build such close relationships with folks that you only recently found were part of your family!
