i felt alone for years, until a friend i met in 2010 revealed she, too, had an abortion. now i'm not alone.

i was sure on my decision. i don't regret it. i just wish people would accept me, and not hate me.

i was a 23-year-old alcoholic and drug addict. by god's grace, i went into rehab and got sober in april of '92. i got pregnant the first week out of treatment.

the pregnancy that i terminated was very much wanted and planned. but at 16 weeks, an ultrasound showed that there was not enough amniotic fluid.

bianca's story

when i tell a friend that i aborted my third pregnancy in my 30s, quite often she'll share details about her abortion experience.
