Well it certainly gives a small bit of hope but sadly not in my lifetime, infact when I read the heading I thought the impossible had be achieved, what I was thinking, did it really happen, sadly not.
Im now a married woman, I have a loving husband, Im now all completely in every way a woman, living a woman's life in every way, but can't be a mother because of my history, Im not the only woman that can't have children. I just don't think about it. Its not going to happen in my lifetime.
