Finally Holding One Another

As Faix held her son in her arms, she started crying uncontrollably. When her daughters checked on her, she told them that everything was fine, that she was just remembering how horrible the adoption process had been. After all, the doctors had not even allowed her to hold Strawn as a child!

In fact, this moment became the most emotional of all for Strawn. “I got really choked up. As we were holding and hugging, she said, ‘I never got to hold you.’ That kind of just broke my heart. It was a prearranged adoption, and it was not recommended for her to hold me.”
