and clearly reflects the stress and depression that exists.
As anyone of us who has experienced the ups and downs of conception, birth and raising a child;
This woman is obviously depressed and in a lot of pain and in need of serious help. It is nothing to laugh about! I pray for her and of course her child and her partner.
