I hear you on this one!!! I still have relatives who ask me when we're having kids when they know it's just not possible for me, and after I explain it again, tell me, "well you can always adopt!"
How is someone supposed to respond to that statement? No, I can't adopt because nobody in their right mind would give a kid to someone so sick. Not to mention that I'm TOO SICK to take care of a baby/child.
People don't realize how much this kind of conversation hurts. Sigh.
