Thank goodness for Planned Parenthood, unfortunately I had to pay for it all myself because he didn’t have any money.

My abortion changed my life - I realized I took my potential as a parent very seriously. I wanted to be a great mom and that meant being ready - older, educated, financially able, married.

When I went in to the office they had to take a sonogram and that lady asked if I wanted to see it because she was obligated to by law - which I think is pretty crappy. It was a very hard decision, but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I made the right decision.

Judy's Story

As I look at my now four and a half year old healthy full term son, and his two-year-old sister, I am so grateful for the doctor and nurses who were willing to see the bigger picture. And so grateful to have had the choice.
