celebrated my birthday in the consulting gynecologist. He tried to cheer, still tell me that came within the "statistically normal" (hate estadísitca) at the end I missed a few tears in the office (and see that try to contain) course can be bad luck, "he said," but is very hard and I never want to go through it, and if there is something wrong?
