"Aviva's Story, Part One: The Drive to Have Children"

Aviva describes herself as one of the "lucky" people walking around with two rare autoimmune diseases that not only make her pregnancy high-risk, but which could have taken her life before she would have ever met her kids or even got married. The miracles and extraordinary medical professionals that brought Aviva to becoming pregnant allowed her to witness something she hardly allowed herself to hope about: becoming pregnant with their first child. Aviva shares the importance of waiting for that second opinion that gives you hope rather than to worry.
