My name is Andrea and my story is different. I want to comment it: I was 15 years old and I was hanging around with my boyfriend, whom I loved. One day I started to feel dizzy; my boyfriend took me to the doctor. The doctor told me I was pregnant, I could not believe it! Since then I never saw my boyfriend again, he abandoned me. I didn’t know what to do, I felt alone, nobody else knew anything about it and I didn’t have the courage to tell my situation to anybody, much less to my parents. I got depressed, but what I had clear in my mind is that I would NEVER abort my child; because I think of abortion as a crime, and mainly because it is MY child, not the child of someone else. To me that means double crime. I thought that my life would change, but I also tought I had to be strong and keep on going. I gave birth to my baby and now he is one year old and I love him. My life has changed completely, but I am fine because I have in my arms a beautiful boy (the one who could have died if I had aborted).
I know that the subject of this page is the abortion, but I am so happy that I wanted to share (it was hard, but a child is a child).
