But Holly J is convinced that she wasn't with them and that she was adopted. After school when her mom picks her up Holly J asks why there's no baby pictures of her as an infant only as a toddler, her mom sighs. HJ asks if there's something they're hiding from her and wants to know. Her mom sighs again and says that her and her father wanted to tell her when she was older, that at 11-months they adopted her. HJ gasps, but her mom insists that she's very special and that no matter what she'll always be their baby. Later at school, Holly J tells Fiona and she's seen on her laptop on a government website. She tells her that she can now search and maybe find her adopted parents.

In U Don't Know (2), Holly J tells her mother in the car that no matter what she won't worry that she was adopted and that her main goal is to find a person who can give her a kidney, she also tells her that her birth mom's name is Dawn and that she's going to call her. Her mother tells her not to lose faith. In the halls HJ along with Fi by her side calls her birth mom and tells her that it's her birth daughter, they make a lunch arrangement at the Dot. Accompanied with Fiona, HJ goes to meet her birth mom, Dawn to her surprise has two kids. They talk and when Holly J's about to mention her kidney she chickens out and leaves. While at dialysis Holly J learns that she'll need to find a donor fast because her kidneys are in the process of shutting down and that in the next 12 month she'll need to find someone, also this could ruin her chances of going to Yale. And we also learn that Fiona does a blood test to see, but it doesn't match, but HJ tells her mom that she wouldn't put Fi through that. Holly J learns it's pretty much life or death and calls to meet Dawn again. She finally gets the courage and tells Dawn and Dawn agrees to do a blood test although it might be risky. Holly J is walking out of school accompanied with Fiona again, she's nervous because she knows that she's going to get a call from Dawn any moment. Finally her phone rings and she answers. After a few awkward moments she hangs up. Fiona asks happily if she'll do it. Holly J tells her that the tests came back positive, and that she'll do it but for $20,000; they both sigh.

In Mr. Brightside (1), Holly J. and Fiona look at dresses for prom and Fiona offers up the 20K needed for Dawn to give Holly J. her kidney. The Coyne's lawyer calls Fiona and informs her that it's illegal to buy organs. Holly J. goes to talk with Dawn at The Dot, and ends up begging her to donate the kidney as paying for it would be illegal. Dawn explains that the recovery would take too long and that her life is too busy for her to be out of commission that long. Holly J. then tells Dawn off calling her a selfish person who shouldn't have children. During dialysis, Holly J. explains what happened with Dawn to Fiona. She says she'll have to tell her mother that Dawn wasn't a match. Fiona tells Holly J. not to give up hope.

In Mr. Brightside (2), Holly J apologizes to Dawn for yelling at her the day previous and instead decides to focus on getting to know Dawn. Dawn tells Holly J that she understands what's happening and that she wants to help but she can't give up work for that long. While working on Holly J’s prom dress, she shows Fiona pictures of Dawn’s old prom dress. Fiona wants the dress and says she’ll pay Dawn $20,000 for it. Dawn agrees, and that also means Dawn and Holly J can go through with the kidney transplant. Holly J is super happy and so is her mom, she's grateful for having such a great friend like Fiona to help her through this and actually pay Dawn all that money.

In Take A Bow (1), Fiona is out with Anya and Holly J and runs into Charlie, who invites her to her art show although Fiona is a little iffy about being around Charlie again. After Fiona learns that Holly J and Anya turn out to have dates for prom, Holly J and Sav are going as co-presidents, and Anya and Riley are going as friends; leaving Fiona alone. Holly J meets Fiona at her house, as Fiona cleans (her mom is coming the next day) she tells her she is going to prom with Charlie. Holly J doesn't like the idea especially her even taking care of her cat, but Fiona reassures Holly J that everything is okay.

In Take A Bow (2), Fiona approaches Holly J who's getting ready to make her valedictorian speech. She tells Holly J that Charlie has a girlfriend and she's stupid for going back. Holly J understands, but Fiona outbursts and mentions how she's going off to Yale, etc. Holly J tells her that she' doesn't need this especially right before the graduation. Fiona leaves angrily. At graduation Holly J gives the valedictorian speech and graduates, '"Well good morning parents, teachers, and fellow graduates. Over the past four years, we have had highs and lows. But, no matter what, we’ve gotten through with the help from our friends. When we leave Degrassi, each one of us is going to be all alone, facing the unknown and I have to admit, I’m scared. In two days, I’m getting a kidney transplant, and even through I know it can save my life…I’m still worried about the outcome. As we all go our separate ways, whether it's kidney surgery, or moving away to University, or going to the army. I know that no matter how difficult the journey, our time together has only made us stronger. So as we bravely face the unknown, we will take with us four years of memories, and friendships, that will last a lifetime. Congratulations, Class of 2011, and good luck." Later at Holly J's last dialysis Fiona comes in and apologizes, since HJ can't go to prom due to her kidney transplant Chantay and Anya walk in with dresses. They have their own mini prom including streamers, and a limo. Later they put their hands in wet cement, and Fiona tells Holly J that she was afraid to tell her that she drank the following night.

In Dead And Gone (1), Holly J got through surgery (and even has flowers from Declan). Sav and Anya come into the room to see how she's doing and they also bring the prom seating chart. Holly J jokes around telling them how it's nice for them to come after her surgery just for the seating chart. They make arrangements around Heather Poulette's breath and they're fine. Sav also asks about secret places at the place incase people want to sneak around and make out. Holly J tells Sav that he's weird and she can't believe her and Anya both dated him. He tells them that's he's charming and they laugh.

In Dead And Gone (2), Anya tells her table that consists of Riley, Zane, Owen, and Sav that she has a surprise. She pulls out an ipad and Holly J is on facetime. She tells them that the operation went well, and that she's doing great. She says that the prom looks fantastic, and jokes saying that a banner is crooked. She thinks it's good seeing everyone and Anya asks her if she got her flowers, and Holly J says yes.
