[UA] Creepy, and yet...

"INDIANAPOLIS - A couple sat by their daughter's hospital bedside for 
weeks after an auto accident until she came out of a coma and they 
realized she was not their daughter after all, but another blond-haired 
young woman injured in the wreck. Their own daughter, it turned out, was 
dead and buried."

My question is--at what point were things still flexible?  Was it 
possible to slip reality a mickey when no one was looking, and 
essentially swap people, bringing the dead back to life?  Yes, it's 
creepy and tasteless to even suggest it, but what family wouldn't give 
their all for another chance at spending time with their daughter?
