i was 21, unemployed and preparing myself to enter university. i had a surgery to pull 4 wisdom teeth, and the antibiotics i had to take reacted with my birth control pills, making them less efective.

my boyfriend was in college and unemployed too, he was very supportive and never questioned my decision. he helped me find ways to get medical abortion and took care of me during the bloody painful process, when i found out there were two fetuses. it was painful, but i never regret because i know it would be even more painful if i had two kids to take care of, giving up my dreams to do it. i just don’t feel like ever having children.
