Imagine hearing that you may never have a child of your own—the crushing weight of that diagnosis, the fear, the uncertainty. In Episode 8 of Talk With Turek, Mike & Katie pull back the curtain on their most vulnerable moments: the heartbreak of being told “no hope,” the years of unanswered questions, and the stigma that nearly stole their dreams. Yet through perseverance—and with Dr. Turek’s unwavering dedication—they not only found hope, they reclaimed it, welcoming two beautiful daughters into their lives.
Why this episode matters:
