I chose to have an abortion for many reasons. I have three children and a grandson who live with me. When my youngest child was born after a complicated pregnancy the doctor told me I probably shouldn't have any more.

Ten years later I found myself in a fairly new relationship and pregnant. I was terribly sick and without insurance I was having trouble finding a doctor that would take a high risk pregnancy. After a good deal of thinking I decided that I couldn't risk my health. I had to think of my other children.

I did feel a sense of relief after it was over. But soon it was followed by a terrible sense of guilt and an overwhelming desire to see that sweet baby's face. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't second guess myself. I don't know if I made the right decision. I only know that I'm so sorry.
