Mom, wife, researcher. Has always loved reading, winter, and being outside. Never forgets the son she lost.
I was always pro choice … for OTHER people. For myself, I always aspired to be a mom. If anyone had ever offered ME an abortion, I probably would have hit that person with a 2-by-4.
Fast forward to my marriage; birth of my wonderful daughter; pregnancy again; and then slow the tape at the moment in the routine 21-week ultrasound when they said “This doesn’t look good”. Then: days into weeks of research, sleeplessness, crying, and terrible discussions about “what is quality of life?”
That is how I found myself walking through protesters to obtain a later-term abortion. Full story.
