Pregnant despite the doctor saying it should be near impossible

Tweet

A few years ago, my cousin had to have a few tissues near her ovaries burned away because of cancer cells. IT was then that the doctor told her that it would be near impossible for her to get pregnant and if she did it would be likely for her to miscarry. She was sad, but we all reminded her that she has three kids already and that's more than some women. Now, she is pregnant again with her fourth child. Even before she went to the doctor to confirm her home pregnancy test results, she was telling all her friends about it. Then after her doctor's visit, the first thing she does is tell her friends when the due date is. I understand that she is happy- thrilled even, but I just worry that she might be setting herself up for disappointment. What if she does miscarry- God forbid. She knows that the probability of that happening is extremely high. I wished that she would have waited until a few months further into her pregnancy before telling the entire world. Also, I'm kind of sad that everyone (at least all her friends and acquaintances) knows that she is pregnant except her mother who has sacrificed and done so much for her her entire life. Her mother did every little job and sacrificed so many luxuries so my cousin could have a good life. Then she did it again every time my cousin got pregnant- put everything aside to aid her granddaughters because my cousin couldn't always take care of them. I guess I should see this as a miracle, and maybe I am over analyzing everything. I guess I just wish my cousin actually took the time to think about this pregnancy.
