Several times I have been told I should not have children like others have. It turns out medically I cannot conceive but was then told I cannot adopt when tried to go that route because of BP. This broke my heart.
I also have been told I cannot complete an education, cannot work, or would never be able to maintain steady employment. I am glad that I never believed any of this.
