I have asthma, my mother passed it to me, and her father passed it to her. I have had some trouble throughout my life with my asthma. When i was a kid I could not stay at certain friends houses because they had dogs or cats. I was not as fast or as endurant as other people, but I lived. Although from experience I know I will pass this onto the next generation this will not stop me from having children.

I have PCOS, I got this from my mother, she got it from hers. I know I will pass this onto my daughter, we will fight it together, this will not stop me from having children.

I live with the firm belief that life is not worth living, if you are not LIVING! I will not worry about what might happen, I haved survived these things, as did my mother and my mothers mother, and my mothers mothers mother, as will my child :)
