Now it makes nosy me wonder how they got separated, especially given he, who stayed with his parent/s, is the older sibling... meaning, what was going on such that an older child didn't know his mother was pregnant, and what happened to that child. The story does not mention if there are other siblings, nor does it mention if the parents - adoptive and biological - knew one another.
In all cases, though, holy cow!
Philip Osborn never knew he had a sister until he moved in next door to her. After living in Florida for years, Osborn recently moved back to a Michigan retirement home to be closer to his family. His new neighbor, Marilyn Meyers, adopted at birth, had spent the past few decades searching for her biological family — so when she heard that someone with the last name Osborn had just moved in, she started investigating. After confirming small bits of family history, they were shocked to discover they were siblings. "I've always wanted to be an older brother," Osborn told Fox17. "It's divine intervention."
