My father went with me as support, my abusive boyfriend wanted to keep the baby, my mother supports my decision as does my current boyfriend. The rest of my family doesn't know.
Type of abortion: in a clinic or hospital with surgery
I don't remember the actual procedure. I cried through up until the anesthetic kicked in. But it was an overall good experience.
Reason for abortion: financial issues, my education, my age (too young or old), problems with my relationship
I was 16, a sophomore in high school, in a severely abusive relationship, and just could not carry the pregnancy to term.

I am comfortable and happy with my decision, I KNOW it was right for me. But there are times that I think about my baby and I am sad, but I wouldn't EVER change what I did.
