I still grieve and it’s been over 10 years

I was in college and my boyfriend left me and my mother wouldn’t help me. I felt I didn’t have any other choice.

[The abortion] was very painful (I did not have anesthesia). The nurse held my hand and the doctor said, "Oh, it doesn’t hurt that much" (male doctor). One week later I bled through my clothes down my legs -- still, I didn’t seek help because I was scared and embarrassed.

It was the most painful, most sad time in my life. I still grieve and it’s been over 10 years. My mother still hasn’t forgiven me. My father died when I was 14 and my abortion was as painful as that experience.

I started with ABBA. I hope someday I can help another young girl to save her baby.

I now have 3 beautiful boys. It makes me sad to think I could have had a child that was 11 years old right now. I always have this urge to have another child --  maybe to replace the one that’s gone.
