Dear GhanaWeb: My fiancé is unaware I lost my womb and we are getting married soon

A Personal Dilemma

A 31-year-old woman is facing a difficult decision as her wedding approaches. She has been dating her fiancé for 3 years, but there is a significant secret she has kept from him.

Five years ago, she lost her womb due to complications from a pregnancy termination procedure. Despite her fiancé noticing the scar on her stomach, she has told him it was from an appendix removal, and he has believed it.

I love my fiancé deeply, and I don’t see myself being with any other man aside from him.

She fears that revealing the truth about her inability to have children may lead to him calling off the marriage. To avoid this, she has been suggesting adoption in a joking manner, but her fiancé has not taken it seriously.

As the wedding draws near, she is torn between her love for her fiancé and the fear of losing him if he discovers her secret.
