I think that this is something that you need to really think about and decide what is going to work for you. I have been married to my husband with CF for over 8 years and he has recently been talking a lot about how he feels so bad about marrying me and "doing this to me", etc., etc. And I must say that it is really pissing me off. I understand that he feels bad that I have to deal with CF, but on the other hand, I decided to marry him knowing that he had CF, etc. It is obviously not the ideal situation, but it is what it is. So, I guess the point that I am making is that you need to decide whether you can deal with this. Your girl friend is apparently a very smart and level-headed person, so let her make her decision and if you can handle that, then you have your answer. If you are going to be feeling like you did something bad to her, etc., then really think about it. It is really hard for me to deal with that part of everything right now. Sorry, this is turning into a rant about my situation, so I think that I will leave that for the blog <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
The point of my post, is that I agree with Allie--she put it very well.
And yes, the kid "factor" is a big issue that should discuss. We discussed it before we got married and continual discuss it. There are lots of options out there if you decide that you want to be parents--just getting to that decision is the hard part <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
Good luck with your decision!
