10 years ago, at age 32, I had an abortion. The pregnancy was unplanned and I wasn’t ready to have a child. I felt some guilt and sadness but was able to work through it. Two years later I was ready to be a mom and I had a healthy baby boy, he’s 8 years old now. I have zero regrets.

I had a safe, legal and affordable abortion. I know not everyone is fortunate enough to have that option.

How did other people react to your abortion?

I didn’t experience any negative reactions from friends or family that knew. My friends were supportive.
