Today is my daughter's 13th birthday!

I hear a lot of people on either side of the abortion argument. Many of these people are so uninformed they don't know half the shit they are talking about. They spew the same shit they have been told by idiots who don't even have the medical knowledge to put a band-aid on a scratch. Many of them think that an abortion is murder of an unwanted baby. But in reality many pregnancies are terminated early and the baby survives. There are many reasons this is done with the hopes that the baby lives.

For whatever medical reasons the pregnancy is very wanted and the baby loved but things happen that cause it to have to end. Either the mother is dying or the baby is in danger of dying. This is my story of my abortion of my very wanted baby.

Superficial

As a woman I feel the pressure from all around me to fit into a mold of slim and trim. So many things putting unrealistic ideals of body shape on us to have a thigh gap or super flat tummy. When I was younger I was very skinny. I did horrible things to be that skinny though, from not eating for weeks on end to sticking a toothbrush halfway down my throat to puke because I had suppressed my gag reflex so much that I had to practically reach into my stomach to pull the food back out. Now as a much older lady I am paying for that ignorance. Bad teeth, bad bones, weak heart, diabetes, and more that makes me think it definitely wasn't worth it to be thin. Anorexia and Bulimia fucked my body up.
