This is probably going to be the most personal thing I have ever posted in my entire life.
I’m pregnant.
I found out Wednesday I was pregnant. While most would probably be elated and overjoyed—I was shocked. I knew in my heart of hearts that I’m not ready. I know that financially, even with Jim, I can’t afford to raise a child. And realistically, I’m not comfortable raising a child in a world full of chaos, destruction, greed, and evil.
And it hurts, you guys.
It hurts, because I am making the choice to have an abortion. Thankfully, I am beyond thankful for the family I have, and the support that I do, and the reason that I have chosen to speak the truth here, is because I don’t want women or men to feel like they should be ashamed.
If you aren’t ready to have a child, you have options.
Don’t ever think you have to make a choice based on anyone else.
And if you’re a man reading this, please be there for your partner during this time. Men receive a bad reputation for all sorts of shit, but men are good people, too.
I’ll be okay, I always am. It’s just hard.
Things happen for a reason, and why life decided to give me the gift of birth now is beyond me, but I know that my time is not now.
With time, things will pan out, but I have much to do, my friends.
I love you all like I love my family. Please be well, be safe, and hug your loved ones like there’s no tomorrow.
