Claire
A Mother’s Journey from Infertility to Love
After trying, longing, and waiting for the gift of motherhood, Claire shares her raw and emotional story of infertility, loss, and unwavering hope. Her journey takes us through the devastating lows of failed fertility treatments and the incredible highs of finding love through adoption and embracing a bi-racial family that challenged societal and familial expectations. This book is not just about the pain of infertility – it’s about the power of love, resilience, and family bonds built from the heart, not just from blood. Claire opens up about the joys and challenges of raising children from different racial backgrounds while facing the prejudices and misunderstandings that came with her decision.
