Description
Introducing my niece, Melissa Calhoon, mother of 12 children. Melissa tells the story of her dream to be a mother, but instead she had three miscarriages and then two ectopic pregnancies. They took one fallopian tube and directed her to IVF! I remember my husband and I praying over Melissa during that heart-wrenching time for them. God is good. Next time she conceived she thought, “Here we go again!” Another ectopic pregnancy!”
Instead, it was a baby growing in the womb! With one fallopian tube, Melissa went on to birth nine biological children and they also adopted three other children. Melissa also talks about the blessings and struggles with their third biological child who was Down syndrome.
