A close friend and I discussed this topic at lunch today. He made the point that when I pass away my wife will have a son to eventually take care of her and the boy will have his college tuition from his social security. Their house is paid for so they will have an ongoing comfortable life. I wonder if those without a child provide the same type of security to their significant other?
I also have a friend who is considering having a reversal. The cost here in UK around £3000, this because you are not covered by NHS. The other matter as yet not mentioned is that sperm from an older man apparently carries more chance of problems in the child. Just my two cents/ pennies..JB
I flew back to the states for this and SOB it was much much much worse then the original vas... The cost in the states ranges from 4500 to 15,000 depending on if they knock you out or just numb you up. Moreover, there is such a huge difference in experience that I found. I ended up flying to Austin Tx and having the procedure performed and was told to have my count checked after six months. I did and they were there but still not have a bun in the oven as of yet. And I totally agree that I can't ever say I could see my wife adopting a child, now matter how I present the argument unless it was a family members child in need this would never be allowed. Good luck.
