Man Buys New House But Doesn't Know He Moved Next Door to His Mother's Secret Child

Man Buys New House But Doesn't Know He Moved Next Door to His Mother's Secret Child
When Philip moved back to Michigan from Florida, he had no clue that his mom had been keeping secrets from him - until he started meeting his new neighbors.

Marilyn Meyers was put up for adoption right after she was born. During high school, her adoptive mother told her that her birth mom's last name was Osborn and she spent decades searching for her biological family, but to no avail.

Meyers eventually started a family of her own and by the time she was in her 70s she had moved into Oaks of Rockford: a retirement community in Michigan.

In 2017, Meyers heard that the house behind hers had been sold to a new owner who had moved to Michigan from Florida.

When she heard that the name of this new neighbor was Phillip Osborne, she joked with a friend about the possibility of him being her long-lost brother.

It was certainly unlikely; the neighbor had lived his whole life without knowing of a sibling who'd been adopted at birth.

As fate would have it, however, Osborne had indeed become the neighbor to his long lost biological sister.
