I was 18 when I found out I was pregnant and my whole world stopped. I had just started college and my life was already in shambles. I made the choice because it was not my place to bring something into this world that would not thrive. But in the end it was actually life or death. It was an ectopic pregnancy and I would have died if I did not do it. It was my life on the line. I will not sacrifice my own safety to please the opinions of others. I matter.
