About this Episode

This week's story is a labour of love...literally. It belongs to Eduardo, Omar, and Christina.

Eduardo and Omar are a couple living in Spain who wanted to start a family. Meanwhile, here in Canada, Christina felt called to help a couple create one.

She has two children of her own, and always knew she wanted to try surrogacy. The trio formed a close connection instantly, as they bonded virtually with a whole ocean in between them. 9 months, baby Ruth entered the world. But the friendship didn't end there.

What started out as the ultimate act of kindness, ended not only in the creation of a beautiful family, but a unique bond and lifelong friendship between three people.
