For episode 22, we are joined by Denise from Indiana USA, as she shares the extraordinary story of her son Wilson, who is now 19 years old and was born with IA/ARM in the Dominican Republic. Wilson's story is one that shows how cruel our world can be, but also, how incredibly kind it can be when a family opens their home and consequently adopt child and provides immense love and care. We also hear of the impact beautiful dog named Amara had on Wilson's life and became his best friend and has provided great comfort. This story, as difficult as it is to hear at times will ultimately show that the human spirit can succeed against intolerable odds at times and the absolute humanitarian nature of an incredible family.
