VERY good video!!!

I know, this is my fourth, but if put all together in the right places, they tell a story. The first starts in the middle, and it says, "This may be a two-part comment," but I "lied." I just reread everything I wrote, and it's a bit confusing.

Like I said, the first part is in the middle, the second part is at the bottom, and it's labeled Part 2. The third part, labeled Part 3 is on top for now, but after I post this, it may be under this comment. (Part 4) Perhaps I will remove these?

"I can't have anymore. I have too many problems." "Besides, I only ever wanted one, a boy, and I got that." Well, on two forms of birth control, estrogen, and under all the other forces that don't support pregnancy, she found out she was 4-months pregnant.

She had a perfect, beautiful baby girl five months later. When she had her tubes tied, her doctors told her they were full of adhesions. Imagine that! So, I would keep your bodies in top notch condition. I know more, but ... no room!

I have a friend who already had one boy, a baby she had when she was in her late teens, but she was married. After that, she started having problems, a lot of them. She was diagnosed with PCOS, endometriosis, and diabetes.

Because of her worsening condition with endo, she had several D&C's, and was put on two forms of birth control, and estrogen. I did ask her if she was ever going to give "Z" a sibling, and she replied rather stoically, (Part 2)

This may be a two-part comment, the first, of course, starting on the lowest level, so to speak. I'm going to try, and make it all in one, but still unsure. I don't know your "predicaments," or anything, but so many doctors have told people, so many friends of mine that they will never conceive.

I have to tell you, I don't think any doctor should be telling anyone that because doctors aren't "Higher Powers." I have a few examples, and I want to share at least one. (Part 1)
