On part 2 of our next show (which begins airing October 5), our guest, Monica, talks about what happened to her regarding a failed adoption. I don’t mean to repeat myself, but it’s SO true…that when it comes to infertility, the challenges and disappoints we face can seem never-ending on multiple levels.

Imagine this: you’ve had one successful adoption, and you are going for one more to complete your family. Then a baby comes to you, very quickly, and you not only get baby #2, but one of the ways you celebrate this, is as a ‘gift’ for son #1…telling him that, for his 2nd birthday, he is getting a little sister. The son is SO excited, and on his birthday video, there is your completed family…you, your husband, big brother and baby sister!…only to find out that a few days later, birthmom has changed her mind! So every time you view your son’s 2nd birthday video, there is the baby sister that had to ‘leave’! 

Listen to the show to find out what happened next, and how one can get through a failed adoption, but pick up the pieces and go on. We are women of determination, and that is what Monica is! Yes, these things DO happen sometimes…but the successful adoptions happen much more often. Monica was strong enough to realize that THAT just wasn’t her baby, even though she wanted it to be.  She is a pillar of strength and encouragement, and she WON her infertility battle. YOU can too.
