Please don't stop! Reading your story was an inspiration, made me say - wow I remember that. Just because she's an adult doesn't mean she isn't your child anymore or that you won't suffer or celebrate with her anymore. Only stop if it no longer helps YOU because it's a beautiful addition for all of the mother's of BP kids.
