I had an abortion when I was 24. At the time, I was a single mother raising a 6-year old son. We had recently relocated to a large city after I had accepted a new job.

I have had two abortions - one at age 23 and another at age 24. I had just graduated college with a bachelor's degree, and my boyfriend and I had just gotten together.

It was 1976, and I was a 17-year-old recent high school graduate. I was looking forward to my first semester in college.

I was 22, had just finished college and was dating a guy who already had three kids by three other women. He was not allowed contact with any of these women or their children.

I was sixteen years old when I found out I was pregnant. I was in a relationship for a few months at the time, and almost done with my sophomore year in high school.

I was single, 22 and dealing with some serious feelings of self-doubt and depression. I had gone out one night with a girlfriend, drinking, which seemed to do a good job of masking any real feelings at that time in my life.
