Why Adoption?

Our story for adoption stems from infertility. After several years of trying to have children naturally, we decided to undergo testing. It was discovered that a genetic issue made it impossible for Mark to have children and after undergoing unsuccessful IVF and 14 unsuccessful rounds of IUI, we came to the conclusion that we must be destined to adopt children into our home. We grew up around large families and have always wanted to have children of our own. It has been hard over the years, trying and waiting with no luck. We very much believe now that we were meant to adopt our family. We are so happy and excited and know that the best is yet to come in our journey.
