What do you do when love becomes conditional? When the baby you carried as a surrogate is labeled “unwanted”? Abigail faced this heartbreak when her sister, Rachel, and Rachel’s husband, Jason, rejected the baby girl she birthed for them, saying, “This isn’t the baby we wanted.”
Abigail and Rachel shared everything growing up, from secrets to dreams of raising kids together. But after Rachel endured three miscarriages and six failed IVF attempts, surrogacy became her last hope. Abigail, already a mother of four boys, agreed to carry the baby, believing Rachel deserved the joy of motherhood.
Throughout the pregnancy, Rachel was overjoyed, attending every appointment and preparing for her child. But when Abigail delivered a healthy baby girl, Rachel and Jason were devastated—Jason wanted a son. Torn between her husband and the baby, Rachel chose to leave her daughter behind, intending to give her up for adoption.
Heartbroken, Abigail stepped in, refusing to let the baby be abandoned. She decided to raise the child herself, giving her the love she deserved. But Rachel couldn’t shake the guilt. After leaving Jason and reflecting on her actions, she returned, determined to reclaim her daughter and become the mother she needed to be.
With Abigail’s guidance and support, Rachel grew into her role as a loving mom. Her daughter, Kelly, brought healing and joy, teaching everyone that family isn’t about expectations—it’s about unconditional love and second chances.
