A Long and Winding Path to Fatherhood
An adoption story Meet Rob: heâs always wanted to be a dad, but when he and his wife decide to start trying for a family, it doesnât go smoothly or quickly. Already in their early forties, they never imagined it would take seven years until their son came home with them. This is the story of a dad who found himself navigating the path to fatherhood via adoption, and everything it took for him (and his writer wife Eve) to get there in the end. Emerging from the disappointment of failed fertility treatment into the new and unknown territory of applying to be approved as adopters â still a million miles away, it felt, from becoming a parent to a child â Rob shares the story of all the ups and downs, the delays and restarts, and the multitude of people he met along the way who helped to get him to the final reward: becoming a dad to their miraculous son Marcus. This is a story of one parentâs navigation of it all. Itâs not trying to be a âhow toâ or a manual of terms and stages; itâs simply an account of one familyâs journey, written for an audience of people who are interested in how they finally got there!
A story, told from the male perspective, of how a husband and wife became parents to their adopted mixed-race son.
