What happens when a "big voice" changes the trajectory of your entire life?
In 1988, Emer Halpenny was holding her eight-week-old son, about to take him home from his foster family, when something extraordinary happened.
A voice, clear as day—landed on her: "What do you think you're doing? You know this is not for you. Put that baby down."
Thirty-six years later, that baby found her again.
This isn't just an adoption story—it's about the moment when you know something so deeply that no amount of logic can override it.
Here's what will astound you: This monumental decision didn't break Emer—it became her superpower. She doesn't agonize over decisions anymore. When facing anything hard, she remembers: I made the hardest decision possible. Everything else is manageable.
