    Hi I don’t kno who to talk to about anything. Here it goes, I met this handsome guy. In Edmonton Alberta, he asked me out, so we started seeing each other. Then we ended I found out I was pregnant, told him. He denied it so I moved to saskatchewan & thats where this happened to me to in north battleford SK in 1994. I had one son & can’t have anymore, I’ve had hard time Going thru this alone, nobody understands. I want more kids. But I feel I’m too old now. Due to this procedure Dr. Selie did to me. I’m so up set.. I can’t believe a “DR” would do THAT to me. Not telling me, or letting me kno.. Not even a notification of any of this. I was to ONLY have a baby n go home, Like everyone else. They “BUH” Battleford Union Hospital. Kept me I was hemorrhaging for 3days. I knew this was NOT Normal. But they insisted I was being well taking care of.. I had my aunt come visit. I wanted to tell her, things aren’t looking good here(@ B.U.H).but she was to busy, telling me about the stuff she bought my NEW baby boy. Who is now 23 yrs old. He grew up alone, asked me from time to time while he was small. “Mom, how come I don’t have a brother or a sister” I cryed. I jst told him drs. Did something to me..I don’t kno what. But they did & that’s why. Its hard finding this OUT on aptn. “That DR’s where & still are sterilizing young women, that are ALONE.. So i’m not the only woman this happened to. Shame on them drs. When I found this out.. I cried & cried a whole day & here I am. Looking you guys up. When my son turned 15 he was looking for his dad. Since we split up. I to haven’t heard from him. My son went bought the Edmonton sun in 2010.. He starts asking me about his dad. His name & age. So I told him , then he shows me the paper & front page was his (face) his dad, Found out his dad was killed in Toronto by an Ex Attorney general. his dads name was Darcy Allen Sheppard. I was so devastated, not for me. but for my son. He was so close to finding his dad. I blame myself for that part. Not letting him know his dad. Now he’s gone! I’ve moved on alot in my life, I’ve got 2 beautiful granddaughters two step grandkids whom I raised as my own. I love them all. My tribe is small.. When It could of been a whole different life for the two of us. We had each other “My Son & I” I need someone to talk to.. I’m stuck with life, no where to turn or no one to talk too, I’m also trying to find my sons grandparents (Darcy’s parents) So he can Meet them for the first time, I’m also starting to working on writing a book. About My life. “From then to now” I’m looking for any kind of help. Any kind. Thank you for listening
