In June, 2015, Mercy gave birth to a son, Jacob, in a hospital in El Salvador.

But the next day, when she was about to take her son home, Mercy sensed that something was wrong.

The little guy whom nurses handed over to her wasn’t the baby Mercy had given birth to the day before.

The mother and her supposed son soon traveled to Texas to be with Rich, Mercy’s husband.

The new parents gave the boy all the love and care that a child could ever want or need, but still, something felt wrong.

Mercy decided to have a DNA test, and it turned out that the boy whom she and Rich were raising was not actually their biological son.

Rich and Mercy realized that Jacob and their biological son must have been switched at the hospital in El Salvador.

They contacted the hospital and soon found their biological son, who was named Moses. But the government refused to issue the boy a passport, so he could travel to the United States.

Thus began the long process of bringing Moses home.

His parents, however, never gave up hope, and after a long battle with the authorities, they were finally allowed to go and fetch their boy and hand Jacob over to his biological parents.

In many cases, a mother’s instincts are stronger than any other force in the world.
