Please help me with some advice!!! Ok...I
have a disabiling condition and I am
having an extrememly hard time with this
pregnancy...Hard time walking, eating,
choking and everyday stuff is getting
harder and harder as the pregnancy goes
on. Doc's say that they don't see how I
am going to get threw the rest of the
pregnancy!!! I also have cancer cell's.
My problem is they can give me med's to
help me but I can only use them if im not
pregnant!!! Do I think about termanation
and starting my med's to get better, do I
not take the med's and risk my health and
the baby's health and worry about my
parent's having to take care of the baby
and me!! The father is not involved and
never will be. This is a personal choice
from what the doc's said..But they advised
me from the beginning not to get pregnant
and this was not planned at all, I planned
on not putting myself threw this!!
Everyday life is getting harder and
harder, if im not ok how can I make sure
the baby is ok??? This is very painful
but what is going to be best in the long
run???

If you do go thru with the pregnancy is it
going to my long term physically,
mentally, developing, or emotionally hurt
you or your baby?

Hi..Thanks for writing.....The effect's
for me will be long term...I may not be
well enough to take care of my own child.
The pregnancy can put a strain on me and
put me in a wheel chair. They are unsure
of the health of the child, they have said
the baby may not have any effects or the
baby can, it's a 50-50 thing. I feel like
my body is going to give out on me at
anytime, but w/a child I want to be there
%100 and with my condition that will not
be possible in the long run.....I am sooo
confused and so scared. What if I can't
play and take care of my own child? I was
doing really good and then this past month
I had an attack and it grows each day.
The med's make the attack's to where they
are not as strong and go away with time.
But not having anything is sooo hard/

you can do it having an abortion would be
the right thing for your health and safety

That's the hard part..I am 24 week's.
They only do it at this stage if there is
health problem's or danger to the woman.
Tha's what my doc had said. So the hard
part is making the decision!!! Im stuck
between a rock and a hard place 'big
time"!!!

Hey girl my name is jenifer and I just
wanted to tell you that I have a friend
that also has cancer cells, but she has
chosen not to have an abortion. She is
almost to term and no major problems have
come up. Im not sure how bad your case is
but just know that if it's remoltly ok for
you to keep the baby you should.

I am so scared and confused!! The cell's
don't bother me as bad as the disabiling
part. I just want us to be healthy and
take care of my baby!! This is the
hardest choice I have ever had to
make!!!!!!

24 weeks and the baby is viable. If you
had an abortion now, you would be killing
a child that more than likely could
survive. If you could hold off a couple
of weeks even and then ask your doc if
they would induce you, you'd more than
likely have a baby who after a few months
in the nicu could be just fine. If you
don't feel capable of taking care of the
baby, then think about adoption, there are
so many couples out there who would love
to preggers but can't be. You be
suprised at how quickly it can all be done
too. If you can't wait that long ask
them to induce now, because your baby has
a good chance of survival now. My sister
had a baby at 23 weeks he was 1 lb 7 oz
and he is fine now, no developmental
delays or anything. I urge you to please
consider an early delivery, rather than
killing a viable human life.
Please don't think I am bashing you about
your decisions either. I am just trying
to help, I didn't know weather or not you
knew that the baby could survive at this
point.

I agree if you are already 24 months
along, do you know the procedure for an
abortion is partial birth? Its horrible,
 oh and in case you
guys didnt already know john kerry has
voted more than several times for us
americans to spend more of our tax money
to support partial birth abortions! That
is why I am not voting for kerry, he is a
horrible person!!!!

Wow I dont know what to say. I only
support abortions if the pregnancy
hazardous to both the baby and the woman's
health, but it's your choice you know?

Ughhhhh.....I hate this!!! This is my
worst nightmare!!! I am starting to get a
little worse everyday!!! My dad had to
help me walk threw the living room
yesterday and I fell into the cofee table.
The doc's said that there is one medicane
I can take but it would help me out but
hurt the baby!! I had a mis-carriage
before and the doctor's always told me
that it would be in my best intresr "not"
to get pregnant and I guess I see now why
they said that!! If I terminate this
pregnancy im going to feel like the worst
person in the world!!!!! I hate myself
for even getting into this. I dunno what
to do

No one can blame you for terminating,
because it's not your fault, your just
protecting your child's health!
