26-Year-Old Mother’s DNA Did Not Match With Her Kids For A Reason That Sent Ripples Through The Science Community

A broken marriage is not necessarily a tragedy for every couple. Sometimes two people, who were right for each other at one point in their lives, drift apart. And instead of blaming each other for their unhappiness, they can mutually decide to end it. However, despite the mutual decision, separation is quite a significant change. From spending every minute of every day together, to not seeing each other at all. It is never going to be easy or pain-free.

Lydia Fairchild, a 26-year-old mother of three, is in the process of a painful divorce. The divorce meant that she is going to have to take care of three children alone. In an attempt to seek help, Lydia attempted to gain government funding for her kids. But when the government got the hang of the situation, she was not only denied the funding but also became the subject of a criminal investigation.

Waking Up

Exhaustion. It hit her even before she opened her eyes. Lydia feels the sunshine blinding her eyes since she forgot to close the blinds last night. She squints at the window, slowly letting her eyes get used to the light around her. She sat up in her bed as the events from last night slowly caught up to her. The screaming and the yelling echoed in her head.
