Re: Child with Severe Deformity.
I wonder if she'll survive with the combination of defects. But one thing's for sure: She'll never survive going to school. No-one's ever going to want to give Toothy Vagina Face their first kiss...

Re: Child with Severe Deformity.
It is different with your own child... I was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, IV. My mom was a very young, soon to be divorced mother of 1 and now a little "severely" disabled daughter. She didn't know until I was born, and she thought that she would never have been able to do it, especially all alone. But she said, the first time a doctor suggested to send me away so she wouldn't have to deal with me... well she said she realized then she couldn't live without me. I'm thankful to her everyday. They told her I'd never care for myself, never go to college, get married, have kids, live alone, etc etc. I have been wheelchair bound my whole life, currently live in a home i've owned for 14 yrs now (I'm 33.) I was married for 10 yrs, chose not to have kids, but could, I have animals. I live alone and have the greatest friends a lady could ask for. Life is amazing. Now all that being said... when my ex husband and I were together we threw around the idea of having kids.. I didn't for many reasons, mainly because I don't want kids but also the 50% chance to pass on my OI. I didn't want another kid to suffer anything I went through. But more on that...I just didn't think it would be fair to my husband or to even anyone else in my life to have to have another person needing help. I don't want to have a disabled child for SO many reasons and I'M Disabled!! It's confusing but I do know... if I were to have a child, unplanned, I can see myself loving it just too much to care anymore about that. I would just want to love and give it as good of a life my mom gave me. And, don't be too hard on yourself, Tini. I'm too selfish to be a mom. I admit it and I'm cool with it. If you couldn't raise a child, disabled or not, you're not a bad person for your choice. Take care! |

Re: Child with Severe Deformity.
Things like this are detectablenon ultrasound at 12 weeks...I am glad I live somewhere that has adequate prenatal care. A lot of these places don't, and they probably arent taught about proper nutrition and essential minerals our bodies need while pregnant to avoid certain problems...like folic acid and stuff.
