It doesn't have to be like that.

It sounds like she is very sensitive to contact with a variety of inorganic chemicals, and anesthesia.

That would be a plain and simple way of explaining it without getting into the world of 'female TMI.'

I agree that adoption is an act of love, but not any more so than married couples who conceive their children in love.

Ultimate love is those mothers who die in childbirth so their child can live.

Well, actually, it wouldn't be proper for me to go into detail here. Haven't you figured out how or why that happens yet?
