I was just 23 when I married my husband. Love is blind as they do claim but Love is not blind. We humans decided to turn a blind eye to some vital things in the name of LOVE.
We never bothered to know our genotype neither our blood group.
After two years, we were blessed with a son which became our source of sorrow.
We started spending and spending on his health, he was a sickle cell as we were told by the doctor.
We never knew our Genotype!
And never care to know before marriage.
We are both AS,
Had it been we had known we would have quit the LOVE.
Had it been we had known we would have done the needful than birthing him for pain and suffering.
We lost him after a while,
We thought we could cope with it but NO,
We believe LOVE is enough for everything but I must say we realized a lot in marriage as a lot unfolds when we never expect.
We divorced and each of us had to start a new life!
It hurts.
Don't birth that child for suffering.
It's not only about you!
Think of that generation coming from you.
You need to know your Genotype and Blood Group.
Do the needful before it ends with tears.
Never say YES without confirming your compatibility.
