Some Families

‘I found a baby on the subway.’ Danny and Pete; The Subway Dads from New York


Listen Later

In 2000, Danny Stewart was rushing to meet his partner Pete Mercurio for dinner, when he came across a new born baby at the exit of the subway station. Fast forward two years and they adopted that baby, Kevin, who is now grown up and at college. Danny and Pete join the hosts of Some Families to share their magical story and talk about the unusual circumstances that the adoption took place, what it’s like to be two dads and how that one moment in August 2000, changed their lives. 

Pete has written a children's book about their story called Our Subway Baby.
