Why would you name your son Taimur? And I was like, it hadn’t even been 8 hours since I gave birth. And I literally started crying. That person was asked to leave. My journey with that began then when I made a decision and said that this is my son, my son. I don’t care what happens. As long as he is happy, and he is healthy and we are happy. I’ll go home and go with this. I don’t want to know anything else. What is trolling, what is happening “.
