Switched at Birth Nightmare Leads Texas Woman to Sue

A North Texas woman believes she was switched at birth almost 50 years ago, and now, she's holding the hospital accountable and taking them to court over the alleged switch!

Melissa Brewton of Glen Rose, Texas made a shocking discovery after her daughter got a DNA test; she discovered that she had a sister! Upon meeting with her new sister, there were more revelations that leads her to believe that she was switched at birth!

Brewton's new sister informed her that another sister was also born on the same day as Brewton and at the same hospital; to top it off, the third sister also had some DNA links to Brewton's family! This led Brewton to believe she was switched at birth with the other sister!

If it's starting to sound like a soap opera, or even a Netflix docu-series, it gets even more intense; Brewton revealed that she didn't have the easiest childhood, and she believes things could have been different had the alleged switch happened!

Brewton wants some accountability and has hired an attorney. Earlier this month, they sued Baylor Scott & White, the hospital system that purchased the hospital Brewton was born in.

According to Brewton's attorney, Jonathan Wharton, that same year Brewton was born, "Texas legislature first started passing a bunch of limitations on medical malpractice cases. One of those limitations put a two-year statute of limitations for everyone's medical malpractice cases regardless of whether the case was undiscoverable or against a minor."

In a statement to CBS News, the hospital system Baylor Scott & White say that they didn't own, operate or manage the hospital until 1981- six years after Brewton was born!
