Her Story
When I found out I was pregnant, I was so excited! My first two trimesters were pretty smooth, I constantly craved McDonald's breakfast biscuits and prenatal yoga helped me stay active. However, when I reached the 34 week mark, I started to feel incredible pain in my stomach. I went to the hospital and luckily the baby was fine, and the pain slowly decreased, so I was sent home. However, four days later the pain became unbearable and I was rushed to the hospital for an emergency C-section. My son was immediately sent to the NICU, since his lungs weren't fully developed yet. Little did I know as he was fighting for his life, I would be fighting for mine.
I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer shortly after he was born. I never expected to be navigating a cancer diagnosis at the same time I became a new mom, but I knew I had to fight this for my son. He was so brave in the NICU, growing stronger each day and staying calm amidst all of the chaos. I channeled his strength and bravery and used it to stay strong during the constant doctor appointments and treatments. I lost my hair and gained some new scars, but I never gave up hope and am happy to report I have been cancer free for over two years!
My son and I are both doing great now. He is an energetic, happy, loving toddler and I am a grateful, exhausted, humbled mama. I still admire him for his strength and positivity and use that to fuel me each and every day.

"On the 8th day of Jack's life, he experienced complications and passed away. The heartbreak engulfed my body but my baby was at peace and not experiencing any discomfort or pain anymore. As difficult as this experience was, I am not the only mother to experience it, nor will I be the last."

"My therapist told me that getting an infertility diagnosis affects your brain the same way as getting a cancer diagnosis. It’s just heartbreak, I guess."

I just got my ex husband back through the help of Dr OSOFO love spell Experts!..My husband left me for another woman, This was just 2 years of our marriage. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back. I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called Dr OSOFO and he assured me there was no problem and that everything would be okay before 11 hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 9 hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened. He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy to him. That was how we started living together happily again.thanks to man, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.OSOFO for help now..Here his contact, WhatsApp him: +2349065749952 {or} Email him( osofo.48hoursolutioncentergmail.com)
