I'll have to look into that. But I am not strong enough to foster. I know several people who do and the stories they tell me makes me wantn to gouge the eyes out of MANY adult human beings. The things these children go through, and how they get bounced around like dogs.... and in some foster homes get treated like dogs...and no wonder they end up being really complicated to care for and have issues that normal children don't have.

edited to add, i just reread what you wrote, youd dint say fostering was free you said ADOPTING a foster child LOL! yes i could adopt a child, but to foster one and then let it go back into the system for whatever dumb reason they do at times...wouuld kill me.

We adopted our youngest at 15. He was an orphan from Romania. He arrived with cigarette burns and all. Quite a sad package.

I am an endometriosis poster child. I had multiple surgeries, and finally was able to see Dr. Andrew Cook and have micro-laser excision...it turned out I had a baseball-sized endometrial tumor that was incorporated into my bowel, uterus, and bladder. UGH. If I hadn't gone to THAT doctor at THAT time, I'd have been dead in just another few months. But I digress.

I was told by numerous doctors that I would not be able to have children. But Dr. Cook told me I would...and I did. Just after my 36th birthday. She's my miracle!

I would say, if you have a choice at all, don't wait as long as I did. Your chances are better the younger you are with this disease. I really wanted more children, but only miscarried after my daughter was born, and finally had to have a hysterectomy at 40. I am eternally grateful for the amazing daughter I have, though. She's really a gift.

Wow... I am so glad you got a daughter after all of that!!!

that is amazing!!! I want a baby so badly now, NOW lol, but even hubby says no. He'd love one but is so afraid of money issues with the economy and with hubby just losing the hours he lost (every friday) we've already had to make such great changes and I know the answer would sitll be a big flat out NO. No one supports me having a child yet. It really sucks. Hubby wants a child, he just is terrified to "do something stupid". Also I am not diagnosed with Endo. However my gyno says she bets anything I do, my urologyst does as well. They said they'd have to do exploritory surgery to find out what's all wrong. My bladder is horrible and so are my bowels so I wouldnt be suprised if it's into all of that. I do not go to the bathroom normally at all...I can go almost a month without going at times. I swell up like a balloon. I told my family doctor about it and she told me to get metamucil did not help. Sometimes yogurt and that cheese that has the acidolpholis (sp?) helps sometmes but even that just bloats me on occations. If I stand up.... for long periods of time, like wheni was a cashier, I used to pee myself uncontrolably...no one could find a reason why, I got a sonogram done and they couldnt find my left ovary.....it was painful them looking for it! LOL! You cant even press on my stomach...its excrutiating. I'm always bloated always. I always walk out to my mom and pull my baggy hoodie up and go "look im 8 months wanna feel the baby!?" LOL!

I used to get bladder and kidney infections all the time, i still get severe bladder pain AZO is my friend.

The only way i see a difference in my stomach is if i eat way below my normal caloric intake, which ofcourse amkes me sick but a week or so into it I start losing the bloat. I thikn i may be "allergic" to bread products and such because of how my gut is.

People dont believe me wheni tell them i barely potty... (i pee but you know waht i mean), they ask me where i Put it and i go "believe me under this shirt, im HUGE" i barely show people but when i do their eyes get huge.... *sigh...*

That's the only thing, I get periods every month and they are BAD! I start getting cramps a week before it comes, and when it does come for two days I dont even want to breathe the pain is so severe. my exbestfriend used to say that my problem is the opposite of hers, I can have periods and they're bad, and she cant have periods (she gets cramps though and sometimes spotting).
