Family in hospital vigil told: It’s not your daughter

A FAMILY mounted a vigil for weeks at the hospital bedside of a young woman they thought was their daughter, before they realised that they were the victims of a mistaken identity blunder.

The blonde-haired young woman fighting for life in the Michigan hospital after a road accident was another college student injured in the accident.

Their own daughter, Laura VanRyn, 22, was dead and had been buried.
