“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. many have come before me, many will come after, and many are making the choice right now. i hope those going through it now and in the future are surrounded by support and filled with power. we have been here before and we’ll continue to be here, with our own unique stories, full of life.”
