My husband and I had always envisioned a home filled with children’s laughter, but life had other plans. After years of trying, we were told that I wouldn’t be able to carry a pregnancy.

And I wanted my children to grow up seeing that compassion is…

Not enough, anyway. And instead of letting myself love him, I let suspicion take root. One night, when fear finally disguised itself as logic, I told my wife I wanted a paternity test.
