Was I born on March 18, 1995 and is my name really Shellon Samson?
These are only some of the questions a young woman is asking, after information provided to her by her mother, about her birth, failed to correspond with those at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
The woman does not have a birth certificate because there is no record of her being delivered at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC). As a result of this, she could not attend school and now, is unable to get a job.
The young mother, who goes by the name Shellon Samson says every time she tries to get information about her birth, her mother would curse her out and tell her a story of a GPHC’s nurse who tore the paper which had her birth information.
Samson was told that she was delivered on March 18, 1995 but when she went to the GPHC for confirmation, the hospital does not have record of her birth. Instead, she was told that a male was delivered on that day.
The woman said that her father too does not have any information about her birth because when he visited the hospital to see her when she was delivered; her mother chased him from the medical institution.
“You see, I am starting to think that my mother faked her pregnancy and she kidnapped someone else baby because I really don’t feel as if she is my mother,” the woman claimed.
She said that she couldn’t complete school because everytime the teachers asked for her birth certificate, her mother would remove her from that learning facility and take her to another school until that school asked for a birth certificate.
“It’s very suspicious,” she says.
When this newspaper called Samson’s mother, the woman said that when she delivered her child, she had an evil mother-in-law, who she believes paid the nurses to remove her daughter’s information from the hospital’s record.
Shellon Samson is now trying to find out whether there are any reports of a missing baby around 1995.
