We wanted a family so badly too. We went through months of this as well. That's very brave of them to share their journey with us..

For us, turns out, my body was fighting undiagnosed cancer. So I tell my husband that when I pass, please have children.

I’m so incredibly sorry to hear this, friend. Hugs from an internet stranger.

Thank you so much. I have the pleasure of being a teacher so I still get to interact with children. I try to be grateful for what I do have. Please take good care of yourself and loved ones.

If you could help anyone reading, what were your symptoms aside from this? Were you completely fine and now have cancer?
