Thank you, Big Mama, for your heartfelt apology. I truly, truly appreciate the gesture. I also haven't had to make that decision, but I agree, we should not be making a bad situation worse for those who have had to make the decision.
I would also like to say this is not the place for a political discussion (and sadly, this issue is very politicized, which breaks my heart. Why anyone should tell anyone else what to do with their bodies is beyond me...). Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion, but I think we should all take care how we express them and not close our hearts to those that disagree with us. GirlOfManyFaces, you are allowed to have your own opinion, and you are allowed to not consider abortion an option for yourself. But it is not for you to say what is wrong for you is wrong for all. I hope we can all continue to support you, but please keep polarizing comments such as the one you made for a different forum than PC.
I hope this message was not offensive to anyone. I just felt the need to say my peace, and hope that from here on, this thread can go back to being the supportive place is was, instead of creating a war zone.
GirlOfManyFaces, I hope you are able to find someone you feel comfortable talking with and are able to get a blood test done to determine whether or not you are pregnant. Is your mom at all supportive? The sooner you can do this, the better, because then you will know what is in your future, and whether or not you need to start taking steps for the health of you and your possible baby.
