00:00It's still fairly inconclusive.
00:03I will never mentally be strong enough to carry a child.
00:06Physically, I've got something called Asherman syndrome
00:09where my uterus is glued together with scar tissue.
00:12So I know, I suppose in one sense,
00:16it's a bit of a miracle that I didn't have
00:19to have a hysterectomy.
00:21So I do still have a womb.
00:22And I spent, you know, I had a year with no periods
00:26and hence then I had a surgery to try and kind of fix that.
00:29And then that ended up in another hemorrhage.
00:31So it's a, where I'm left currently is
00:35that the hospital have sort of said
00:37it would be too life-threatening to,
00:39we wouldn't want to do another surgery in that area.
00:42Like, let's let you live.
00:43And equally, you know, I'm so grateful to have
00:46one beautiful, healthy child
00:49who has lots of friends and cousins and, you know.
00:54And I, you know, I do have ovaries.
00:56So there's a chance that I could
00:58freeze some eggs and embryos.
00:59Further down the lane.
01:00Yeah, when I'm ready.
01:01Further down the lane,
01:02because Louisa, there's a lot happening.
