Healing from Heartbreak

Not all adoptions come with a happy ending. In fact, there are several tales of failed adoption. It's a very real loss for would be parents and for other members of the family, and it can be just as heart-wrenching as if the child had been in the family for years before the loss occurred. Never fear, there are ways to cope, and Adoption.com can assure you that you are not alone.
