The researchers went deeper into the study and took a DNA sample from Lydia’s mother. The reports showed a link between Lydia’s kids and her mother. The researchers started to assume if the biological mother was any of Lydia’s sister. Again Lydia was struggling to justify herself in front of the judge, however, Lydia’s lawyer was busy in some other research.
A Medical Anomaly
Lydia’s lawyer found out about the 52-year-old, Karen Keegan who lived in Boston. It occurred several years back when Karen was in search of a kidney donor. Her DNA didn’t match with her first two kids but the third one. The doctors conducted several tests on different tissue samples collected from Karen’s body over a period of years and eventually discovered the rare situation that made it to the New England Journal of Medicine. What was it?
Forging Links
Karen Keegan’s case was somewhere or the other connected with Lydia’s case. Attorney Alan Tindell talked with Karen and headed back to Lydia with the possible reason behind all the extreme mess that has been created. Karen’s story gave Lydia the most needed ray of hope. Despite being exhausted by all the tests she agreed to get one last test: a cervical screening test. This was their last hope.
Bad Publicity
By this time this news made its way to media. And a woman accused of fraud against the Washington state government. The newspapers, as well as the TV broadcast channels, depicted her as a criminal. Everyone was now aware of the half solved case that was pointing all the fingers at Lydia.
How Many More Times
Lydia was hoping for the medical screening test to be her final test. Well, nobody knew at that time the rarest of the rare condition of Lydia. Her name was going to be placed in the medical books due to this case.
The Missing Piece
The DNA test results that came on the basis of Lydia’s cervical screening finally showed the most awaited genetic link between her and all three of her children. Indeed, she wasn’t lying and now the world knew it. But why all the previous tests weren’t able to match with Lydia’s kids?
