when i was 17 i found out i was pregnant after missing 2 periods.

it wasn’t too big of a surprise since we didn’t use protection but i was new to sex and trusted my boyfriend that we wouldn’t get pregnant. my boyfriend at the time was a heroin addict and i was barely out of high school.

i signed up for government help to pay for the abortion but it ran out before my actual appointment so my best friends grandma paid for it. i made the best decision by not bringing that baby into this world with an incapable mother and a drug addicted father. i’m now married and waiting to have a child until i’m 100% capable of giving the child everything it needs!
