I've never been more sure about a decision. This was something I wanted to do, so I did it.

successful!

I'm 22 years old. I want to finish university. I want to travel. I want to intern in Spain's embassy. I want to get my translator/interpreter certificate. I want to be child-free for a few years. I want to be an excellent mom, mediocre will not suffice. I want to raise children who become great people, not people who resent the fact that their mother wasn't ready to raise them. It's something I would regret my entire life. My personal philosophy is to live in love and gratitude with no regrets. Having a child now isn't part of my life plan.

Did the illegality of your abortion affect your feelings?

This didnt affect my feelings because abortion is legal in my home country.
