| Amy
C. | I finally
did something myself, in love and respect FOR myself. | | Allison | Ending
my pregnancy is one of the best decisions I've ever made. |
| Helen |
When I got there, I met an absurd looking man from a pro-life
organization, I guess, he grabbed my arm, and told me that a life was going to
be killed by me. |

I know
women who had babies they didn't want. They're all on Prozac. I know women who
have had abortions, their lives have gone on. |
| LeeAnna | I
have read most of the stories you have and feel like I want to share mine. | | Lilian |
I
recently had an abortion... |
| Allison | I
was 10 years old and 3 weeks pregnant... | | Kristen | I
just never thought that it would happen to me... again. |
| Brittany | I'd
always wanted my parents to find something in me to be proud of. They were always
so unhappy with me and I didn't want them to hate me even more. | | Mendy | My
experience with pregnancy and abortion started from the moment of conception and
is with me to this very day. |
| Carol | What
it was like in the old days... although abortion was illegal, there existed a
grapevine of names of abortion providers. | | Lynne | I
have an abortion scheduled in 10 days. As each day passes, I feel more certain
that this is the best decision for everyone involved (including the unborn child). |
| Allison |
I
told that woman to mind her own business and I stood tall and proud. I refused
to cower or be ashamed. | | Cassandra | My
pregnancy had nothing to do with God but simple biology: when a fertile man and
woman have intercourse without birth control, pregnancy is likely. |
| Lizzy | I'm
not sure why I am angry, but I think it's from feeling out of control. | | Christy | This
is a long story, but it makes me feel better to tell it. |
| YM |
16
and pregnant - 9 years later. |
| Kelly | I
had an abortion 3 weeks ago... |
| Suzy V. | Not
only did I survive it, I survived it with grace and have even gained strength
from it. | | Molly | There
was no way I could tell my parents. They were unsupportive my whole life, and
going to them for help was not an option. |
| Ajah | The
first time I went to have a sonogram I was farther in the pregnancy than I had
thought so the cost was more than I could afford. |
| Kristi |
If
you decide to go through with this life-changing decision, change your life for
the better. |
| Amy | My
mother always said that we, as women, are forced to make the toughest decisions.
And we are! | | Spike | They
think abortion equals death. But I know, truly, it is silence that does so. |
| Nikki | I
found out I was pregnant a week before I started my senior year of High School.
|
| Liz |
My
heart is pulling in two directions, I have been home for 16 years raising my kids
with every ounce of love and energy I have. |
| Alma |
He
was a virgin and I had already lost my virginity, so he was pretty eager. |
| Ginger | I
feel good about my decision to have a abortion, because 5 months later, I met
the man of my dreams, the man I married. |
| Shauna |
I believe that choice is essential and part of choice is considering all options with a caring and responsible friend, professional or partner. |
| Jenny | There
was no way at the time I could have raised a baby on my own, but all the same
I felt horrible about what I was doing. |
| Erin | I
made it through and I'm standing on the other side. |
