Supportive and caring. All of my loved ones just wanted to make sure that it was my decisionand that I wasn't being coerced into by anyone. I felt grateful I have so many friends that cared that much about me.

It was private and I was thankful for that.

I had the abortion because I felt that at this time in my life in an unstable relationship with a selfish bastard I wouldn't bring a child into my life. I didn't want the responsibility of doing it on my own. I would rather be angry at myself for being cowardly than being angry with my 2 year old because they need me after a long day at work when my patience would be very thin.

I am confident in my decision to end my pregnancy. I am feeling very sad and angry. I know I am still grieving, I am disappointed in myself for not standing up for what I wanted because I was afraid. It has been a month since my abortion and the waves of feeling are lessening with the time in between them. At times like this, late at night, is when I feel the most sorry for myself and the most heartbroken. My anger is lessening but I think I will always be just a little sad and I will always know that a little piece of me died the night of my abortion. Keely
