Mistaken Identity WOW! Just gotta read this book now!

For those of us with kids, grandkids, nieces, etc...WOW....I just saw the interview with Matt Lauer about two families who got the call in the middle of the night to say that your daughter was in an accident....one was alive, the other was dead BUT their identities were mixed up by accident and 5 weeks later.....things are starting to become apparent, but one was buried as the other....GOSH, these poor families!

I have gotta read the book! Has anyone read it yet?

Mistaken Identity: Two Families, One Survivor, Unwavering Hope
Whitney and Laura are the young ladies written about, they are the Taylor University Students...

Thoughts anyone?

I haven't read the book yet but the internet is full of articles on this. I can't imagine what these families went through. There's some very interesting reading on it just on the internet. I even found an article that went through how the mix-up happened.

It was on Dateline last night. Such a sad turn of events for the one family, but great news for the other.

I saw the Dateline program the other night - I can't even imagine how each of those families must feel. My heart really goes out to them.

How sad! I just can't watch shows like that. I can't even read about them. They just break my heart too much.
