"What if?" is a very difficult thing to face, as the answers are never truly known. Fears and doubts can take wing and turn into terrible beaked black corbies pecking out the flesh of your heart.
But for your mother, and for your father, and for you, I'm inclined to say "great tests are great gifts." They faced the tests, and they conquered them. Their great gift is a wonderful daughter, the like of whom I never would have imagined had I not come to know you.
