The punchline

[jackofallgeeks]

Something occured to me just now, which has never occured to me before. What if I can't have kids? Now that'd be a cosmic joke. The one thing in the world that I want, a family, made all-but an imposibility.

-shrugs- Just idle thoughts. Anyways, you'll never know until you try.

like the above stated comment... there is always adoption. i know that isn't waht you mean... but take it from someone who has 'female' problems and was told that having biological kids might be difficult ... there's always adoption as an option. true, they don't have your nose, or her eyes, or blood ties. but somehow that really doesn't matter once you have them in your life.

heavens, one of the best most darling babies i've ever taken care of was an adoption case - Luca. and oh, how i wished he could have been mine. sigh... i miss him so much. not even right, i tell you.

Oh, I fear you and Mrs Dawn have misread me -- you'll notice that I said 'all-but' an impossibility. Adoption wasn't ever out of my mind. that having been said, though, I have to say I fall more along Ms. Beth's position, that is, Adoption isn't as easy as we'd like. if I think too long about it, it's really frustrating -- so many kids wanted to be adopted, so many families WANTING to adopt, and somehow neither find each other. It's almost a commentary on the human state.
