I lost my job and haven’t been able to find another one
since. My boyfriend only works part-time and isn’t helping me anymore. I
already have three children and I can barely take care of them. It would be
wrong for me to bring another life into this world. Thank you for your help and
allowing me to care for the children I already have.

I am a 26 -year-old married woman. However, my husband left
me alone to raise four children. He knew I was pregnant and left me without
warning. I have had very bad kidney problems during this pregnancy. I have no
one to take care of my four children if I were to pass during childbirth. This
abortion is a blessing for my health and the well-being of my children.

Over
one-third of women of reproductive age have an abortion by the age of
45. However, women who have chosen abortion are often absent from the
public debate. In order to break the silence surrounding abortion, we
feature real stories from real women each Wednesday on our blog. If you
would like to share your story with us or have it published on our blog,
