This Child of MineBeautiful, emotional and hopeful, but have tissues to hand. Liz Fenwick When Stephanie is told shes pregnant and that she is sick on the same day, she faces an impossible choice After trying for a baby for so long, finding out I was pregnant was supposed to be the happiest day of my life. But in the same breath as the news I had been waiting years to hear, the doctor told me I was seriously ill. If I carry my baby to term, I will almost certainly die.
