"my story is one of self preservation, grief, emotions, interconnectedness and self love. my story includes the duality of life and death, loneliness and community, nostalgia and joy. among all these things, my choice to have an abortion is one of the most powerful and life giving choices i have ever made for myself."

having an abortion challenged me to rise to a new level of knowing that i always have the power and my voice matters. sharing my story is important to me because i want every woman who has been in this position, or currently going through it to know they also are capable of getting through any perceived negative situation by the power of their mind.

my abortion wasn’t a magical key that set me free from the abusive relationship – it would take me one more year. however, my abortion was my first taste at freedom – it was the first time i held my head up and looked him right in the eye, confronting him. i chose freedom.
