Ella and Eric dreamed of a family. But the truth that surfaced after bringing their adopted son home would tear everything apart.
The dream of holding a child, hearing the patter of small feet across the floor, and being called “Mom” or “Dad”—for Ella and Eric, that dream was everything. It wasn’t just a hope. It was the driving force behind every choice they made for years.
They longed to become parents. They wanted to share their love, their home, their lives with a child. So when pregnancy didn’t come easily, they didn’t give up.

Ella and Eric poured everything into the dream. After months—then years—of trying naturally, they turned to medical solutions. Fertility treatments. Hormone shots. IVF cycles that left Ella drained emotionally, physically, and financially. Each negative result was another wound to the heart.
