"Adopting is just like giving birth: you don't know what you'll get"
I couldn't agree more with this quote. There are no grantees in life and that is so very true with children. When a woman is pregnant there is no grantee that the child will be born healthy or not develop health issues later on in life. Adoption is the same thing I truly believe. Yes there are tests that should be done (Hep, HIV, etc.) just to rule out some biggie issues. BUT that being said you cannot test for everything. If issues do arise you would deal with them just as you would with a biological child. Adoption takes a leap of faith...but I would not leap if you are not sure. I myself have always wanted to adopt my entire life, I never wanted to have biological children. If you and your husband are unsure think about it and then think about it some more. Good luck to you no matter what you decide!
