I'll share.
My husband and I were quite stupid and immature when we met. We broke up and got back together and fought a lot. We wasted a lot of time on drama and silly stuff. We finally got our act together and then got married. We decided that we most likely didn't want children. I was 27 at the time. I started having pain in my side and after about 8 months, my husband convinced me to see the doctor.
The doctor sent me for testing, bloodwork, MRI, XRay, ultrasounds, etc. They told me I had a cyst but they were pretty sure it was ovarian cancer. All markers in my blood said that it was cancer, the fact that I was so young is the only reason the doctor didn't give me a 100% answer. They told me that they would go in and remove the cyst. If they saw cancer when they went in, they would give me a complete hysterectomy. At 27. I was broken. I thought that I didn't want kids, but seeing my choice taken from me was truly difficult.
I woke up from surgery to hear that I didn't have cancer, but the cyst had strangled one of my ovaries, and they had to remove that ovary. The doctor assured me that with one good ovary, I would still have a chance to have children. Of course, I would only have half as many chances, so the doctor told me to give it a year and a half. I said okay, but inside, I was afraid that I had squandered my chance for a baby.
I went back for my 4 week post-op appointment, and I was pregnant! I will never forget looking at my husband and getting to tell him the news. He look shell-shocked, like he'd been smacked in the head. We laughed and cried. I think of my daughter as my sweet and special miracle, and she brings amazing joy to my life.
so in 2004 my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer and passed away in May of 2005. I was 12 years old with a twin sister, an 8 year old sister, and my dad. It kind of ruined our family. My little sister turned into an angry kid and my dad started going out with his friends a lot and our relationship became weird. So I never had anyone to talk to about the whole situation...until my college orientation. 3 years ago I met my now boyfriend and he lost his mom in 2009, so now I finally have someone to talk to about how I'm feeling about my mom being gone and he can talk to me about it. It helps to be able to just hug it out and cry a little with someone on mothers day and it's help me a lot with the remainder of my grieving. He's the best and I'm just so happy I have someone who is going through what I am going through.

OUR story is alot like yours my wife and i met 22 years ago in a chat room there were only 5 whole chat rooms on aol at the time. I lived in connecticut and she in kentucky. My wife had 2 kids from a previous marriage and they were still very young so she did not want to move them away from their family. I could not move due to my job. When we finally met in person after a year of chatting online and by phone it was love at first sight. I missed my return flight 3 times as i couldnt bear to leave her. Fate had other plans for us it seemed. Soon after that meeting her daughter became seriously ill. My wife had to move close to the hospital treating her which was in tennesse. During this time my wife had to devote all of her time and attention to her daughter slowly we lost touch. However i never for a moment doubted i wanted to be with her. Over the next 5 years we talked by phone and i looked for a new job closer to her. My wifes daughter started to improve. Then a relapse occured. Again our plans were put on hold. We tried desperately to grab a weekend here or there but it just didnt work out. Another 4 years passed. I still never dated another woman during this time and she never dated another man. Gradually her daughter became better yet again and graduated high school and went on to college. Out of the blue neither of us knew the other was going there. We met by accident at WDW it was a trip she was taking her daughter on for graduation i was there with my company for a conference. I saw her by the pool at the yacht club i think i almost fell in i was so stunned. Needless to say we spent the entire week together. 2 weeks later i gave my notice at work i flew down to my wifes house we grabbed the kids and flew right back to WDW we were married there 10 years ago this month. We now have two additional daughters and have not spent a night apart since. Now in 8 days we are headed back to WDW to spend out 10th wedding anniversary and 22nd year of loving each other. We try to go every year back to where we married and stay at the yacht club. For us disney world is truly the happiest place on earth at least for us.
