"I would’ve tried anything to terminate them on my own."

I’m currently 28. I had my daughter two months after HS graduation at 18 and my son at 21.

As someone who cannot take birth control & almost died from an IUD implantation, the 4+ abortions were after I had both of my children.

I can’t express how much relief I had felt that I had the options available when I needed them and I honestly don’t know if I would still be here today without them.

I would’ve tried anything to terminate them on my own.
