hi all
i am confused. we have just returned from an awesome holiday. We met some amazing people and had a blast. Some of the people we met were much older than us, one man in particular is 81 but we got on so well, we just all fell about laughing all holiday. He is a widow and never had children. It got me thinking about how amazing his life has been and would it have been the same had he had children? i doubt it as they take priority. When we met people who had children they were quite dull as spent most of the time talking about their children or grandchildren. And why they didn't take that amazing opportunity to move out of the UK because they didn't want to interrupt Johns cello lessons! Then it got me thinking that actually its the same in real life. My friends who have not had children led the most interesting lives...
Had you asked me before DH diagnosis i would have always always said that i definitely wanted children, it was just a given without ever really thinking about it. But now that its a very conscious decision as we have to chose clinics and treatments its got me thinking... do i really want to be a bore...
