Married couple Chris and Jesse share their turbulent story of trying to make a family through the foster-to-adopt system. You'll learn about their big gay wedding (one of the first in California after gay marriage became legal), their entry into the fost-adopt emergency placement system with guidance from historic adoption and child placement agency Vista Del Mar, their unexpected relationship with the baby's birth mother, and their emotional experience with childhood sickness in the form of the very rare Kawasaki disease – a tragic turn of events that could've happened to anyone, gay dads or straight couples parenting.
