1947年被拆散的双胞胎姐妹现在已经90岁了,这一切都要归功于一次侥幸的DNA测试。

父母去世后,毛里利亚·查韦斯和安德里亚·洛佩兹——连同她们的八个兄弟姐妹——被分开,送到大家庭中生活。

四年后,他们再次见面,但在9岁时,查韦斯和洛佩兹失去了所有联系。

在接下来的81年里,这对双胞胎分别为自己打造了生活:结婚,生孩子,然后分别退休到拉斯维加斯和丹佛。

但在去年的感恩节,洛佩兹做了DNA测试,一切都改变了。

正是通过这个测试,洛佩兹发现她的双胞胎妹妹还活着,在一个很长的电话后,洛佩兹飞到丹佛与她的妹妹亲自团聚。

他们的家人拍下了这对失散多年的双胞胎自从还是小女孩以来第一次拥抱的甜蜜时刻。

“我的小妹妹,我真的很想见到你,想和你在一起,我美丽的小妹妹,”洛佩兹用西班牙语说,两人拥抱在一起。

“当我看到我的妹妹时,我很高兴,我什么也不做,只是哭着拥抱她,把她压扁,”洛佩兹在他们重聚后告诉新闻9台。

“这就像我有生以来第一次见到她,因为81年太长了……我只记得一点点,一点点,一点点,我也记得。”

而查韦斯则说:“我是世界上最幸福的人,因为我从没想过还能再见到她。”我很孤独,我有一个美好的家庭,但我真正需要的是我的妹妹。”

似乎他们仍然有兄弟姐妹之间的竞争,在他们团聚的时候,查韦斯和洛佩兹为谁是老大而争吵,后者坚持说她比她的双胞胎早出生6分钟。

尽管如此,姐妹俩还是想尽可能多地呆在一起,所以在洛佩兹到达后的那个晚上,她们睡在查韦斯的床上。

然而,由于查韦斯只有一张单人床,洛佩兹在半夜摔倒了,这让她妹妹很开心。

此外,由于DNA测试,查韦斯和洛佩兹发现他们还有三个兄弟姐妹还活着,都是八九十岁的人。

尽管他们已经上了年纪,但他们还是继续穿越全国去团聚,其中一个兄弟从洛杉矶开车到拉斯维加斯去见洛佩兹。

同样,洛佩兹自己也远道而来,去德克萨斯州见她的另一个兄弟。

我们喜欢大团圆的结局。
