"She Still Calls Me Daddy"
</hdr><body>
<p> Before the nine-year-old daughter of Ernest and Regina
Twigg of Sebring, Fla., died last year, following surgery for
a heart defect, doctors made an unsettling discovery: Arlena
Twigg was not their biological child. Last week genetic tests
established that the Twiggs' real daughter is Kimberly Mays, who
was born at Hardee Memorial hospital in Wauchula, Fla., at about
the same time as Arlena.
</p>
<p> Robert Mays of Sarasota, Fla., who reared Kimberly
believing she was his daughter, had the painful task of telling
her the truth. "She still calls me Daddy," says Mays.
