It's a story of girl meets girl: They're stable and solid and want to start a family. All the pieces were snapping into place for Angelita . . . . Or so she thought. When she and her wife embarked on the new way of bringing up baby using IVF and IUI, they were forced to take unfathomable routes and endure the deepest losses. Through her pain and her beautiful story, she has since learned that sometimes, the most precious gift is the one that comes unexpectedly and forces us to give up control and have faith. Within these pages, Angelita guides you through each step of creating her modern family, from walking into the fertility clinic and exploring the different options for implantation to finding the perfect donor to the losses she endured and the eventual cradling of their beautiful son after three long years. When Angelita lost her first child and plunged into unspeakable pain, she was inspired to reveal how she built her family as the resources she wanted and needed in her darkest hours weren't available. She is now extending a hand to anyone struggling with infertility, loss, grief, and hope, among the many other emotions implicit in this journey. You will leave this book moved by Angelita's expressions of the power of love and loss and how it helped uncover her most authentic self that changed her forever. "There is no footprint so small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world."
Growing up, Angelita Cusatis was an avid reader and would get excited for the summer reading list every year. She became such a voracious reader that it led to her profession as a commercial contracts manager, aka the resident bad cop. Despite her immersion into the world of reading, she never imagined herself writing a book, much less becoming an author.Then, she endured unforeseen events on her journey to become a mother in a same-sex relationship and knew she had to share her story. Angelita was inspired to reveal how she built her family so others struggling with loss, hope, and grief could feel her presence and know that no matter what, it is going to be okay. Her journey, although fraught with incredibly tragic turns, has forged an unbreakable bond with her wife and given her the greatest gift of all. She knows everyone's journey is different, and no matter the outcome, you must love yourself through the unpredictable and, sometimes, the unfathomable. Angelita enjoys traveling, yoga, working out, summer mornings, reading, and doing work that leaves an impact on her community. She lives in the suburbs of Maryland with her wife, baby boy, and cute dog. You can find them traveling, cuddling, and soaking up the precious early days of their child's life as they watch him grow up too fast. This is her first book.
