i wasn't a teenager. i wasn't raped. it wasn't an emergency abortion.

often, when reading or hearing stories about women who choose to end a pregnancy on their own terms, you hear about how that woman was too young, or in a relationship too unhealthy, or single, or raped.

i had my abortion 5 months ago. i am 24, in a long-term stable relationship, i have a fantastic job.

i was nervous the night before. more nervous than i had ever been.

everyone says that they will never do it. it's murder.
