The documents contained it. I suppose I was unaware of how serious it was.<\/p>\n<p>My husband gave me a disbelieving look. \u201cYou mean you were aware of this?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt wasn\u2019t a huge deal to me!\u201d I fired back. It\u2019s only hair, and he\u2019s a kid. Why is it important?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou didn\u2019t tell me, so it matters!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A tiny voice cut us off just as I was about to continue our argument. \u201cMom? \u201cDaddy?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam was standing in the corridor with his small hands clutching the wall\u2019s edge when we both turned around. Tears filled his large, blue eyes. \u201cAre you returning me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My heart broke into a million fragments. I hurried to embrace him and embraced him. My voice broke as I answered, \u201cNo, sweetheart.\u201d \u201cYou won\u2019t be sent back. You will always be with us.<\/p>\n<p>With a look of remorse on his face, my spouse stood still. He approached us slowly and knelt next to us. \u201cI apologize, Sam,\u201d he murmured quietly. \u201cI was just\u2026 taken aback.\u201d But no, you won\u2019t be sent back. We adore you, and you are now our son.<\/p>\n<p>Sam looked up at him and sniffed. \u201cReally?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My spouse softly ruffled Sam\u2019s head and whispered, \u201cReally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As I put Sam to bed that evening, I saw my husband hovering at the door, observing us. He later said that he was embarrassed by his response. \u201cI simply wasn\u2019t ready,\u201d he admitted. But when I saw how terrified he was and how strongly he believed we didn\u2019t want him, I saw how mistaken I was. I\u2019ll perform better. I *aspire* to perform better.<\/p>\n<p>And he did. My husband became Sam\u2019s strongest supporter throughout the months, learning as much as he could about alopecia. To boost Sam\u2019s confidence, he even began donning a matching bald cap on \u201cno hair, don\u2019t care\u201d days.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his lack of hair, Sam filled our lives with so much love and fun that we couldn\u2019t picture our family without him. Even if they are the ones who cause your heart to develop the most, the nicest surprises can also come with difficulties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWhat?\u201d I clarified, \u201cSam has alopecia areata.\u201d Hair loss is a symptom of an autoimmune disease.
