\u201cI\u2019m 27, and\u00a0I feel devastated by\u00a0the turn my\u00a0life has taken. I\u2019m lost and desperately searching for answers because I\u2019m too emotionally overwhelmed to\u00a0think clearly. That\u2019s why I\u2019m writing this letter, hoping that after\u00a0I share my\u00a0problem, someone might help guide me\u00a0to\u00a0the right path. I\u00a0also want to\u00a0warn other women who might find themselves in\u00a0a\u00a0similar situation\u2014 I\u00a0wouldn\u2019t wish my\u00a0luck on\u00a0anyone, not even my\u00a0worst enemies…\n

Initially, my\u00a0love\u00a0life seemed perfect. I\u00a0met David (30) when we\u00a0were both in\u00a0college. I\u00a0had a\u00a0crush on\u00a0him from the moment\u00a0I saw him, and to\u00a0my\u00a0surprise, he\u00a0felt the same way. We\u2019ve been together ever since. About six years ago, we\u00a0mutually decided that we\u00a0wanted to\u00a0start a\u00a0family.\u201d\n

\u201cWhen years of\u00a0trying didn\u2019t lead to\u00a0a\u00a0pregnancy, we\u00a0decided to\u00a0seek medical advice. We\u00a0had tried for so\u00a0long, but nothing happened. I\u00a0felt so\u00a0depressed and terrified. It\u00a0was David who suggested we\u00a0see a\u00a0doctor, so\u00a0we\u00a0did.\n

The doctor ran some tests, and\u00a0I was told that\u00a0I couldn\u2019t have children. My\u00a0whole world came crashing down. I\u00a0remember crying so\u00a0often and at\u00a0the most random times that\u00a0I started to\u00a0think\u00a0I was losing my\u00a0mind.\u201d\n\n

The couple decided to\u00a0opt for surrogacy.\n\n

\u201cDavid tried to\u00a0console me\u00a0and distract me\u00a0from my\u00a0grief. He\u00a0suggested adoption, but\u00a0I wanted my\u00a0own child. Then one day, it\u00a0hit\u00a0me: I\u2019m infertile, but I\u2019ve always wanted to\u00a0be\u00a0a\u00a0mom, and surrogacy might be\u00a0the best option for\u00a0me. I\u00a0discussed it\u00a0with David, and he\u00a0initially agreed. However, he\u00a0started to\u00a0hesitate when he\u00a0realized how expensive the procedure was.\n

We\u00a0were struggling financially at\u00a0the time, and my\u00a0mental health issues meant\u00a0I couldn\u2019t work properly. I\u00a0talked about our situation with my\u00a0parents and other close loved ones, including my\u00a0cousin Amy. To\u00a0my\u00a0surprise, Amy offered to\u00a0be\u00a0our surrogate to\u00a0help reduce the costs, and\u00a0I couldn\u2019t have been more grateful to\u00a0her.\u201d\n\n

After multiple struggles, the couple was gifted with a\u00a0boy.\n\n

\u201cHere\u2019s what happened next: After several unsuccessful IVF attempts, Amy finally became pregnant! Three years ago, David and\u00a0I welcomed our son through surrogacy, and he\u00a0was absolutely perfect. I\u00a0was over the moon. We\u00a0named him George, and\u00a0I dedicated all my\u00a0time to\u00a0taking care of\u00a0him.\n

Amy visited often to\u00a0see George. She even babysat for him while\u00a0I had to\u00a0take urgent work trips. David suggested that we\u00a0rely on\u00a0her for help, and at\u00a0the time, I\u00a0didn\u2019t think much of\u00a0it. In\u00a0hindsight, maybe\u00a0I should have.\u201d\n\n

\n

A shocking revelation that tore the family apart.\n\n
\n

\u201cRecently, I\u00a0took our son to\u00a0the doctor because he\u00a0wasn\u2019t feeling well. They ran some blood work, and\u00a0I discovered that I\u2019m not his biological mother. I\u00a0thought it\u00a0must have been a\u00a0mistake, so\u00a0I told David we\u00a0should sue the fertility clinic. To\u00a0my\u00a0horror, David confessed it\u00a0wasn\u2019t their fault.\n

He\u00a0admitted that he\u00a0had gotten close to\u00a0my\u00a0cousin around the time we\u00a0were undergoing the IVF process and had slept with her a\u00a0few times. I\u00a0felt an\u00a0indescribable rage and betrayal. The son I\u2019ve loved more than anything is\u00a0not even mine but the result of\u00a0David\u2019s affair with my\u00a0cousin. I\u00a0immediately asked David to\u00a0leave the house. I\u00a0couldn\u2019t bear to\u00a0even look at\u00a0him.\u201d\n\n

Martha is\u00a0filing for divorce but she\u2019s not sure how to\u00a0deal with George.\n\n
