I hope someday to go. Right now I'm a poor college student, but someday!
Oddly enough, I'm not a mother. In fact, I'm unable to have children because of my illness. I can conceive, but attempting to carry a child to term would almost certainly kill me pretty quickly, plus my genes are crap. Actually, since short term birth control for different reasons are all unfeasible, I'm arranging for my own sterilization, which was why I remember that part of Fire so clearly. I have a pack of young cousins and nephews and I grew up with children all around and want children of my own, and when I came home from the preliminary appointment, I ended up breaking down while driving home. I found out when I was eleven that I would not be able to bear my own, but going through the process of getting my tubes tied really brings it home. Eventually I hope to adopt, after I've gotten my law career up and running.
