Aunt Boo Boo took the kids for vacations, helped out with college and was always there for them. I know it is tough not having children but I don't feel we should be defined by the ability to have them or not. There are many children that need our help either with adoption, or foster or Big Brother/Big Sister etc. I chose to help yorkies and deal with the ones with lots of issues..this is my pass it on.
I agree with getting a second opinion but I do know life is to short to be in pain all the time nor are you living a full life if you constantly regret what could have been.
The only real complaint I have was that I had to start to shave at a very young age.   Most woman don't have to do this until much later in life...  |
Hi, I began having problems with endo at 15 years old, it was controlled with birth control pills at that time, it did seem to help! I was fortunate enough to have had 3 children but had a complete hysto just leaving my cervix @ 37 years old. I was in so much pain I called my OB who met me at the ER , I needed an emergency hysto...you are so young and there are alot of alternitives out there, maybe this is an option for you. I HIGHLY reccomend the Hystersisters website, I have been a member for 10 years!! They are wonderful and offer alot of support and there. Please visit the website it offers so much information and alternatives!!
