Married couples, unable to conceive, are thrilled to find they are going to become parents, thanks to a larger-than-life "miracle doctor" and his unusual treatments. However, joy soon turns to outrage with the discovery the physician has taken bizarre and inconceivably unethical means to deceive his patients. In some case, the doctor deliberately misled couples into falsely believing they might have a chance to become pregnant when they could not. In others, the twisted physician actually served as a "secret donor," fathering countless children himself. Outraged by these shocking discoveries, one couple leads a seemingly impossible fight to keep hopeful families from being victimized again. Written by Anonymous
What other reviewers forget is that it's based on a true story. You don't need to understand the doctor's motivation. You don't need to understand why Melissa Gilbert is a victim even though she got her long desired baby. The law is the law, the guy committed a crime, and people were taken and out of money. Speaking of money, I loved how back then $20 will get you sperm. I digress. I thought it was well done that the friend distance herself from the main character after conceiving. Totally true of women in that circumstance and you think it's jealousy, but in actuality it's because people normally distance themselves from people who are duped by charletons but come together again once the duped come around. Showed a great view of two sides of a story with regards to two very different victims of this real live narcissist, yet still maintains that both are indeed victims.
