Sandwalker,

At the date of my incident I had a 4 year old son and a baby on the way. Now he is 5 and my youngest is 7 months old.

I found they gave me the motivation to go on. I kept feeling that my inability to do certain activities with them that I was letting them down as a father and I needed to do the best I could at recovery.

I won't deny the long nights of a crying or fussy child or the constant colds they got does not take a toll. But I love my little rascals and would do it all over.

That said, I don't know much about your situation such as age, health and etc...it would be better without PCS for sure but so would many things. Other risks are depression post birth and it can be a rough time for the mother, so it's important to support each other going through this if you do move forward with PCS. Do you have family support near by to help give you breaks?
