Shattered Hearts: A Personal Narrative (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781771616003)

Morgan and Daniel, two teachers, could not have their own children. Adoption seemed to be a normal option open for them. It would give them a family, a new life to live, hope, love, and much more. A little boy appeared in their lives and captured their hearts. "We were sure our paths had crossed for a reason. Fate being what it was, we opened ourselves up to the vulnerability awaiting us and applied to adopt him. The more we found out about the little boy and the things he had lived through, the more determined we became to welcome him into our lives." --Morgan Castle

The narrative unfolds in painstaking detail and follows Morgan and Daniel as they attempt to navigate through a complex, deeply personal experience, and a bewildering bureaucratic process. It reads like a diary with a first-person narrative that absorbs the reader totally. This is a heart-wrenching story written with profound honesty and fully detailed. It is a document of human emotion and a veritable roller-coaster of hope and despair, stress, and incomprehensibility, of bureaucratic power and obfuscation, how two individuals' dream turns into a devastating reality.
