I am so glad to have found your blog.<BR/><BR/>I scrolled down a bit and read that you have endometriosis. Well ... I have to tell you a BIG miracle story.<BR/><BR/>When I was 21, I was told I needed a complete hysterctomy due to severe endometriosis (and, being that was 26 years ago, they didn't have as many treatments for it). Anyway, went to a new doctor, he confirmed the diagnosis, but told me he would hold off on the surgery for a little while so that we could pray about it. He did, however, tell me that I had a 2% to ever get pregnant.<BR/><BR/>Two weeks later ... I was pregnant, after telling everyone "God doesn't care about percentages." And ... in the next 6 years we had 6 children. Yes Lord!<BR/><BR/>After 7 children, I was again told to have a hysterectomy. However, when the doctors opened me up, they discovered I'd been healed. So, I went on to 3 more pregnancies ... and then 3 adopted children. So, after being told I would "never have children", I am the mama of 13.<BR/><BR/>So, have hope ...<BR/><BR/>blessings,<BR/><BR/>LaurelLaurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17253303288242135440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4849845122622187479.post-23169594281435371652009-02-07T20:12:00.000-05:002009-02-07T20:12:00.000-05:00I just read your comment on MckMamma's blog... Br...I just read your comment on MckMamma's blog... Breaks my heart! I too believe that we share so many characteristics of what we want and desire to be but what is potentially stopping us from getting there... <BR/><BR/>To be a mother is a calling from God. I believe mother's exist for biological children, adopted children we welcome into our hearts and homes to call our own, as well as children whom we have great influence over although not their primary care giver... <BR/><BR/>BTW - I loved your "Who Am I" video. Neat!!!! :-)The Swann'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03897080926759273403noreply@blogger.com
