Dear Sonya,
Your note gave me shivers.  It sounded so much like me.  I haven't  
lost a child (my granddaughter, but not a child), but I had also  
always wanted to adopt all of my children.  I guess I was really  
afraid of the "pain".  Little did I know that THAT pain would go  
away.  My first delivery was a "normal" delivery - they induced  
twice, but it was still "normal".  And my second delivery was a touch  
and go emergency C-section.  I am so glad that I did go ahead and  
have my own children.  I would gladly accept adopted children, but  
even with my problems, I'm glad that I did have my own biological  
children.
I was also attacked, but thank goodness, I wasn't raped.  I, too, am  
hoping that one day you will find someone to love and have a family.   
I know that worrying is always there, but I'm also glad that you are  
doing the testing so that you know what to expect.  Good luck.  And  
lots of hugs.   (((((((((((((((Sonya))))))))))))))))
