Don't settle for adoption
Adoption is a good thing, and not something you have to "settle" to do.  If you want kids, it's a great way to be sure you have them.  I know a couple who adopted because they thought they couldn't have kids, then managed to get pregnant.  They didn't give the adopted kids back, you know?

You are a brave survivor with an important story to tell. You are an inspiration to others, and to me. Thank you for telling your truth. Blessings to you.

Worries....

Just wanted to drop you a note of encouragement. My friend survived cervical cancer and the surgeries. She then managed to have three children in spite of being told by all the doctors that she was down to a 30% chance of ever getting pregnant let alone carrying one full term. Murphy’s law stepped in and knocked her up by the first guy she slept with after five years of celibacy.

 

Remember this mantra from the Terminator movies, “The future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.”

How horrible Dew
The only thing that can console you is the fact he did not transmit AIDS or a disease that could have killed you.

Wrote a comment, but it was really long, so I'm moving it to my OB blog...
