My Sons Are Actually My Nephews?. A recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that a woman who conceived three sons with her husband was biologically unrelated to two of them. Doctors posited that the woman herself was part of an nonidentical-twin pair that fused at an early stage of her mother's pregnancy and that only her blood cells are hers, alone, while cells from her eggs and other tissues may have come from her sister's fetus.

Wrap your noodle around this - That means that the boys are actually cousins. Two of her the mother's sons are her nephews. The father has 3 children by two women. [Father Dan]
