Years after adopting little Sam, David received a phone call from a lawyer. “Mr. Wallace,” the man said. “I’m calling on behalf of your adopted son’s birth parent…” “What do you want?” Dave asked sharply. “I would like to talk to you…” the lawyer said. “I’m not interested,” Dave said. “Those people abandoned my son. There’s nothing you could say that I want to hear.” “Please, Mr. Wallace,” the lawyer said. “For Sam’s sake.”
Being a father was all David ever wanted, and his wish was finally granted when he became a single dad of a beautiful boy with Down Syndrome.
However, before the adoption took place, David experienced the worst heartbreak a man can ever experience.
That day, David was pacing down the hospital corridor as his wife Rita was in the delivery room. He and his brother were impatient to meet the little baby boy who was supposed to change everyone’s life. Rita’s pregnancy was a smooth one and nothing spoke trouble, so no one really had anything to be concerned over.
