May I vent please?

Every day I am more thankful for this site. All of you are so positive and so amazing. It really helps me during my rough days. Yesterday I was doing a little surfing regarding late stage breast cancer and pregnancy. (I am at Stage IIIA 7 of 12 lymph nodes positive, ER/PR -, Her2 +++.) I have a 2 1/2 little girl Emma. I have always wanted to have another child so that Emma can have a sibling. I understand that we may not have that option depending on what happens with my period, as well as other factors. I read an article yesterday that hinted that women in the late stages of breast cancer should consider not getting pregnant. Not because of reoccurence, but because they wouldn't want to leave their children motherless. It was the first time in a long time that I had this huge feeling of hopelessness. Even if I don't have another child, I don't plan to leave my child motherless. My husband never new his father because he died even before Dan, my husband is born. I know how much this has affected him. I don't want Emma to have to go through this. Finally, I was telling this to my best friend yesterday, who has been just awesome through this, and she told me that maybe I should prepare myself for reoccurence. I don't want to do this either. I know she doesn't understand. I just had a rough day yesterday. I am sorry.
