    We should have been preparing for our little girl’s birthday,

    My darling dear baby girl should’ve been turning 2 in October.

    The trauma of losing her is hitting me really really hard. I wish I could spend this time honoring and moarning her with the man that would’ve been her dad but, instead I am alone in my sorrow.

    I was told I was temporary and while I am a ball of tears, again, just like last year … he is married with a child and I am still in moarning. I don’t deny him happiness but I do have anger towards him for denying her. The reason she left this world was because neither mommy nor baby was healthy and she wouldn’t survive.

    My darling dear, you are worth more than this world. You are loved, always.

    I miss you more than words can say. My darling Taylor, my love and light ❤️

    Mommy promises to love and hold you in her heart forever. Your dad left us both and I am sorry I couldn’t keep you alive or your daddy and mommy together.

    I miss you forever ❤️

    Grief of ending a wanted pregnancy

    With the overturning of Roe Versus Wade, I felt compelled to interview women that have had abortions to open the conversation about these very individual and personal stories. I encourage you to listen to Kate's story with an open mind and an open heart, especially if you are against abortion.

    Kate had a late-term abortion when she was 35 weeks pregnant due to severe medical issues and it being a very high-risk pregnancy putting Kate's life in danger. Kate's story is an emotional one but it's not an uncommon one. Kate shares the shock, grief, and fear she experienced when she learned her best option would be having an abortion for her very wanted and very loved baby.

    Listen to Kate's emotional and powerful story here

    Why Exceptions to Abortion Bans Don't Always Work

    I am overwhelmed with all the abortion talk since the ruling overturning Roe vs. Wade by the U.S. Supreme Court. I had an abortion when I was 17. I was pregnant as the result of incest. It is one of the lowest parts of my life. I was alone in my trauma and there was [...]

It goes without saying that this decision has far-reaching implications that many of us haven’t even thought of. One of these involves the ways in which changes will be made for therapists [...]

    Suffer the Little Children: An Abortion Provider's Story

    “I want her to feel pain.” A lump formed in my throat; medical school never prepared me for this. Before I could formulate a response, he let go of his wife’s hand, crossed his arms, and spoke more forcefully through gritted teeth: “I want to know how to make her feel as much pain as [...]

    If you have a miscarriage, you are now a suspect

    Few people seem to understand this, but a ruling to overturn Roe allows for every woman who suffers a miscarriage to be treated as a murder suspect. How ghoulish. #Abortion

Wade, the landmark 1973 decision affirming the constitutional right to an abortion, I have felt my mental health take a nosedive.
