"We need to focus on what's best for our children no matter how unconventional the solution is or what the odds may be." Carla always wanted to be a mother. She was already a corporate executive at a Fortune 100 company and a loving wife, who lived with her husband and two dogs in a beautiful house in Charlotte, North Carolina. Although her dogs were her "babies," Carla desperately wanted to have her own children. It's not that she couldn't get pregnant. She struggled to carry full term. Carla, an upwardly mobile, successful African American woman, determined to be a mother, crosses paths with a beautiful baby boy, Devon. A mother at last, Carla finds joy in her baby-born two months premature to a birth mother ravaged by drugs and mental instability. At six months, the cruel wheels of justice take Devon away, back to a world of abuse and poverty, locked in the clutches of his birth mother, backed by an unfeeling judicial system. Faced with the choice of letting go or fighting for the son given to her by God--Carla chooses to risk her wealth, her sanity, and her very life to return Devon back to the family they both so desperately deserve. Through the eight year process, Carla learned about the pain of others, generational trauma and it's impact on mind, body and soul. Compassion for the birth parents and desperately wanting to keep her child safe were drivers that took over her life for six years. When Devon was six, the unthinkable happen, and everything that seemed to be helping was actually enabling generational trauma. Something had to happen quickly for Devon to be saved. Journey to the Son is not only a discussion about motherhood, but a collection of memories, often painful, held together by a thread of hope. It invites parents from every walk of life and every situation to sit down and chat about the awe- some gift they've been given--no matter how uncon- ventional or how long the odds. This mother's story brings to light the power of perseverance and prayer and gives the verse: "...but with God, all things are possible," a whole new meaning. Sit back and be blessed
