I know I should post, and I'm sorry I haven't. But I'm too upset.
My dear friend Ellen, after years of infertility treatment, the loss of a baby to Trisomy 18, finally, finally got to meet her new baby a few days ago (they adopted domestically). For three glorious days, they learned what it's like to fall in love with a baby.
Until the birth father refused to sign the papers (after saying he would for seven months) and they had to give the baby they called their son back to the attorney.
I know birth parents have rights. But Ellen and her husband are just absolutely devastated and heartbroken. If you can spare a prayer for them, please do.
