I had an abortion because I did not want to be pregnant. I wasn't ready to start a family and I wanted to pursue an education and career without the burden of an unplanned, unwanted pregnancy.

I am very lucky that in my state there are no protesters outside PP clinics and that I could go in with no resistance. The procedure was intense but worth every moment and every penny spent.

How did other people react to your abortion?

My boyfriend at the time was very supportive, beside his desire to start a family and those I surround myself with have also been supportive of my decision.
