I received notification from the genetics co. 23 and Me that I share DNA (50%) with a man who was just as shocked as I. Communication with him revealed that he and one of my sons share the same birthday and were both born at Kaiser on Geary St., SF. My ex-husband and I are both quite distraught. 23 and Me identified my ex as sharing 47% with this man. I would like to learn whether an error was made at Kaiser. What is my next step?
Hello Patricia, I am sorry to hear about this fiasco. There are two issues. It looks like the proof and the evidence shows that there was negligence based on hospital malpractice. Don't know if the statute of limitation would be a bar to recovery, but it certainly would be worth investigating. I am a member of the Florida and Texas bar and I do have my cocounsel who has a California license so we both would be interested in looking at this case. Feel free to call next week at your convenience. Thank you very much.
