A woman found herself in the middle of a family drama after reporting her brother-in-law’s sister for accessing her medical records without permission. The incident happened years ago, but the consequences still haunt her today. She was hospitalized for mental health reasons and wanted to keep it a secret from her sister. However, her sister found out, leading her to suspect that her brother-in-law’s sister, a nurse at the hospital, had accessed her records. After reporting the violation, her sister and brother-in-law cut off all communication, leaving her heartbroken and questioning if she did the right thing.
