Because she was born without one, she created her own family from scratch. The means she used to achieve this are best kept secret, because they were illegal, and because the second-hand market for human body parts should never have been accessible to a child. In any case, the main point is that at one time, a mother, a father, a little brother, a cat and a couple of birds entered her life fully equipped with the standard attributes of parents, siblings and pets.

She took them to entertainment parks to have them watch other parents behave with their kids in a normal happy way. She tried hard to have them loving each other, as it was commonly understood that
