## Caption

“…One week after my abortion the Roe v Wade overturn happened, and it has made my emotional recovery drastically harder. Had it been my first pregnancy, I wouldn’t have recognized my early symptoms when I did to get my abortion in time. Had I waited just one week longer to take a test, I would still be pregnant right now because Planned Parenthood in Arizona stopped performing abortions. I don’t know what would have happened to my family. I should consider myself lucky but nothing about my situation feels lucky. I’m grateful I had the opportunity to choose especially since so many people don’t have that right now. I feel guilty for the same reason. I’m afraid to have sex with my boyfriend because I’m afraid of getting pregnant again.

We got the apartment we applied to the day after my abortion and planned our move in date. I’m currently sitting in our living room watching my toddler play, grateful I have her but hurting knowing I had to sacrifice enjoying my second to give us the home we have now. My freedom to choose that decision no matter how difficult or how emotional the reason, is what I believe gave my family the chance to successfully start over which is what we are currently doing, finally getting on our feet. My abortion taught us that we do want a second child and has given us a goal to work towards so we can provide for both of our children when the time comes.

My heart breaks for every person that doesn’t have that same freedom to choose right now.” 💛 #ShoutYourAbortion #abortion #aborto #aborcja
