About Me

My photo
I'm in my 30's, which to me sounds very odd. I only feel like I'm in my 20's and definitely not a grown up. I have spent the last 7 years battling with my health; firstly spending 2 years getting a diagnosis for a tumour on my pituitary gland which was causing Cushings Disease; then spending the rest of my life dealing with a pituitary gland that doesn't work. However, I have a fantastic family and an amazing boyfriend who I live with and adore - they keep me going and inspire me to try to make the most of life and my life in general.

Eastenders made me cry

It's just the most emotional storyline, and very, very sad. It made me think about my own situation and whether I would ever have a child myself one day. Part of me thinks I shouldn't even go there as I don't feel like I could cope with looking after a child right now or maybe not ever. It's a little bit odd really, having children is almost part of why we are here, it's what we do. We get married, we have a family. Are you complete if you never have children? I guess that comes down to how you feel.... I can't quite pinpoint how I feel though, I'm just waiting to get my own life back on track and then hopefully start really enjoying life to the full. Will I want to give that up in a short time so I could have children? Time is running out as far as my physical body is concerned, but you can't make that a reason for having a child. Besides, you need to have two willing parents to be and I'm not sure the Boyf wants that. I do think adoption later in life could be a very real option but there again, that is not an easy path to take. It's a long process and I imagine expensive too. Oh well, back to taking one day at a time then. It's all you can do sometimes.
