Hollybears mom. You have my thoughts and prayers in your journey.
Try to not worry about having a disabled child. My dh was born when his mother was 42. Sure, there were things that the "younger" parents did that his mother didn't do with him but he managed very well and is perfectly fine physically.
I can understand you desire to have another also. I would be lost without my siblings. They are a blessing. Remember that there are a lot of "only" children out there too, who do great, so you do not need to have another child for your child. He will be fine. My dh is an only child and I ask him if he misses not having brothers or sisters and he says no. He doesn't even understand what it is like so he can't miss it. He is very independent and strong. Plus, now he has me and all my family
I have not gone through medical treatments myself so I don't have advice on that really, other than do what you feel best in your heart and soul. Listen to yourself. You need to be confident in your decision and trust it 100%. You will make the right one if you look within.
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
