 AF> financial toll as well.  How do you reconcile these issues 
 AF> with bringing a baby into the world? 

        Go for it.  My boy is now 25.  I have been a quad in a 
wheelchair all his life.  He peed on me, threw up on me, crawled 
into my bed with soggy pjs, and accused me of not loving him.  
But every little experience was worth a million dollars and the 
love and pride I have for him is worth all the worries.

        Being a parent is hard, but the rewards are terrific.
