Three Wishes: A True Story of Good Friends, Crushing Heartbreak, and Astonishing Luck on Our Way to Love and Motherhood

Carey, Beth, and Pam were successful in their careers but had not found romantic partners. Each decided she wanted to have a baby before it became too late. Facing the challenge of no available men, Carey took the first step toward single motherhood by researching anonymous donor banks to find a suitable match. Instead of proceeding with donor insemination, Carey met a man, fell in love, and became pregnant naturally. She then passed her donor vials to Beth, who similarly met a man and became pregnant. Beth then gave the vials to Pam, and the same outcome occurred. Though the three women experienced setbacks and disappointments along the way, all three became mothers and built families. They shared in the joy of their friendships, romantic relationships, and their continued hope throughout the process.
