![]() ![]() Our final stop was to the Garden of Angels cemetery. ![]() We were especially touched to take a photo of Gabriel and the nurse who first cared for him. ![]() Next we went to visit the hospital where Gabriel had been “safely surrendered” to meet and graciously thank those that took care of him at the beginning of his life. We will always honor Gabriel’s birth-mother, and also those that helped bring him into our family.įor example, to celebrate Gabriel’s second birthday we took the family on a special “Thank You” trip.įirst stop was to our adoption agency to donate some toys for foster children. Sometimes, when people hear Gabriel’s story, they ask with a negative tone, “What kind of person could give up her baby?” We immediately respond, “A very selfless and intelligent woman who was in a difficult time in her life.” In turn, Gabriel and his birth-mother have made our wishes come true. By adopting Gabriel into our family, it is our family’s goal to make her wishes come true. We know this must have been the most difficult decision of her life however, she wished her baby would have a better life than she would be able to provide. His birth mother did a very courageous act she carefully bundled up her newborn son, and handed him over to a nurse in the hospital emergency room, then walked out of her baby’s life. Gabriel was “safely surrendered” at a California hospital, several years ago. Gabriel is a living angel, a precious gift sent to us through a miracle. ![]()
