i had an abortion today, and it's the last thing i ever thought i would do. i have two sons who are soon turning 5 and 2, and i co-own and operate a business in the health care industry.

finding out: i found out i was pregnant monday, february 9, 2014 at a clinic nearby my work. before giving me a pregnancy test, the doctor assured me i probably was not pregnant.

i was 21 years old and facing the darkest period of my young life. i knew in my subconscious the moment i became pregnant but couldn't begin to face.

tenia 28 años, un hombre bueno y comprensivo como esposo y un hermoso hijo de tres años. habia logrado obtener el trabajo que siempre desee y por fin ese año que apenas comenzaba se veia prospero y lleno de proyectos hasta que el preservativo se rompio.
