I was seven weeks pregnant when I had my abortion. Afterward, I felt relieved.
I never thought that's the kind of decision I would ever have to make because I'm responsible, I come from a good family.
So anyway, I cried pleading with my son's father the entire way to the clinic
I wanted the baby to be named Cody if it was a girl or guy because that was my first love.
He called me three times that day, and left voicemails like "I think I deserve to get a phone call back from you, since you're carrying our child." Crazy.
I carried this pain with me for the past 27 years.
I was almost six weeks along. It was and is the right decision for me.
