This story appears in the comments section of a New York Times article titled “Let’s Talk About My Abortion and Yours.”
I have had 2 abortions. I refuse to be ashamed.
I have mentioned my having had abortions many times. I didn't want them but it was necessary.
Today at 66 years of age I don't have to worry about getting pregnant. I can't imagine a world where this option is taken away.
By speaking about my abortions I try to normalize it, because it is.
