i am grateful i had the opportunity, and it scares me that people are trying to take that right to control their lives away from others.

before i knew it i was living in a car, with two kids under the age of 5 and out of work. i didn't want to think about being pregnant, i wanted to die.

in the end though, i am so grateful for having the ability to choose, even if only half of me is at peace with the choice i made.

do not let the religious right dictate the story of your life. do not let them feel bad about this decision. only you know if it is the right one for you.

my doctor put me on antibiotics but failed to tell me that they would make the pill ineffective. well i got pregnant!

i had to have two doctors sign off on the procedure because of my young age, but i managed to convince them that i never, ever wanted children. i knew i should never have them. i was right, and i have never changed my mind nor do i have any regrets.
