I've had two abortions. Got my first when I was in college. I was 20. Someone slipped something in my drink, and I woke up in a stranger's bed with no memory of what had happened to me. And I got the second one around five years ago. I was falling in love with someone who would have made an amazing father, but he told me that I didn't fit into his future. Those were both very difficult times for me. But deciding whether or not to have an abortion, that was clear. And I was able to do the right, responsible thing, and I was able to get it done responsibly and quickly. But you know what? The circumstances, they shouldn't even matter. You should be able to get an abortion simply because you are pregnant, and you didn't want to be. That's the very definition of choice.
