My fiance came with me for every part of it, even the procedure, which was the most painful thing I've ever felt. I sat in recovery for a while, not wanting to leave... I don't know why.
The term “rape” was definitely not a word I used often; I don’t think I even knew what it meant at the time.
The clinician stated that she called the other local walk-in clinic for me and they would not help me either.
My abortion was actually quite empowering, and I know how that might sound to some people.
I was 19 years old, and I had been with my bf for a bit less than a year and a half.
It's been about a week. I'm still bleeding, cramping, and I'm still sad.
He was like, I am not going to be a father. I am not going to help you. I am not going to give you money.
