I was told the chemotherapy I had would make me infertile. Fortunately and surprisingly that turned out to be wrong.

Oh shit you have two things to celebrate. You made it through chemo and had a miracle baby! Niceeee🫂
(I didn’t really feel that natural urge to have kids so when I found out I’m infertile, I wasn’t that bummed. I’m glad it happened to me instead of some woman who really wanted one)
I appreciate nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgpr9mhxue69uhhqatjv9mxjerp9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsq32amnwvaz7tm9v3jkutnwdaehgu3wd3skueqkshq8e's caveat. I feel like I've been there regarding no possibility of kids. Twice. (Long story)
But be there for some kids, in you own family, your community , wherever, and have fun and grow with them. Be that fun godmother, aunty, someone's second honourary mother. They'll give you a lot of joy, and will be there for you when you need them later.
Oh totally. Kids can still be a big source of meaning. I worked in peds for years teaching kids with Down syndrome and cerebral palsy how to communicate.
They say “it takes a village” to raise a child. So it’s a good thing there’s people like me without them. Who else is gonna babysit when the parents need a break? 😂
