OCTOBER IS BREAST AWARENESS MONTH Breast Cancer Affects Everyone Hug A Survivor! There are millions of them... http://www.nationalb...awareness-month

could be a car accident where the mother dies and the daughter is in a coma, at that age she wouldn't have dental records or any records to ID her, probably wouldn't even have a SSN. so there's a mix up and she's sent to a different hospital then the mother's remains go and the staff has no idea who she is, the red tape that would cause would take months to cut through, government weenies don't exactly move fast and the uncle would probably not push it as he unconsciously wants to avoid seeing his neice's dead body

Yo! Here Also if you're looking for minor 1 & 2 you should check out shows and stuff with characters in those age ranges, lot of writers like to keep them as they appeared in whatever source they came from.

Basic human incompetance works pretty well. There was a story in the news recently of a woman informed of her mother's death, only for the doctors to have confused her with another patient.

It could be something as simple as they find lots of blood but no bodies. Or a horrible car accident on the high way and the car ends up in the woods and they assume an animal ate the girl. If there's a river it could be a simple as car goes off bridge and they only find the mother's body in it and assumed the girl was sucked out the broken window and the body will wash up. I hope that helps

Well it doesn't have to be a huge hundreds dead sort of thing. How about a ferry crash? Mother and daughter fall overboard, only mother's body is recovered from the water? Looking for a little more complex? Car jacking that results in the mother's death immediately, the daughter, who was the real target of the kidnapper, manages to get away at a later location and the kidnapper snatches up another little girl before being spooked by police and crashing the car resulting in a fireball that makes DNA identification next to impossible. The second girl is reported missing while the daughter is assumed dead because they are able to tie the kidnapper to the mother's murder. Finally my years of binge watching crime dramas finally pay off!
