Torn,

Oh my gosh. Bless your heart. What a shock that must have been, when you were already having a very difficult time with things. I'm so very sorry that you had to go through that on your own.

Please take the time to be patient with yourself and your emotions now. Try not to beat up on yourself, OK? Not about the pregnancy, not about the herpes, not about the boyfriend, nothing. Just care for yourself and your body and be gentle with yourself. It is perfectly natural for you to be feeling sadness, anger, grief, resentment or other emotions after what you have been through. Take care of YOU first and let yourself feel what you're feeling.

You are an important, wonderful person. You are not ruined because you have herpes -- many people do. You've gone through some tough things recently, but that just shows me how strong you are inside.

I'm glad you are getting good care at the clinic. Be sure to keep your followup appointments, OK? And keep talking to us. We're here for you.
