‘When I was 12 years old, my older sister died by suicide. She was my whole world. This year alone I’ve had over 20 suicide attempts.’

‘When will we hear the patter of tiny feet? ‘You don’t want to be OLD parents, do you?’: Family adopts 2 children after struggling for years with infertility
“The phone call that changed our life. It was 8 p.m. on a Wednesday when the phone rang. It was our social worker. ‘How would you like to come and meet a baby boy? He’s almost 6 weeks old.’ My scream must have deafened her. We’d been waiting to adopt a child for two years and before that had spent five long, desperate years of infertility tests and treatments to try for one of our own.”

Getting pregnant at 15 was not a ‘dumb, teenage mistake.’ I wish I hadn’t remained silent.
“I was coerced into having an abortion by my parents who threatened to abandon me if I chose to continue my pregnancy. We were the typical Suburban facade, our lawn dyed as green as my parents were supportive.”
‘My son is exclusively breastfed. But he doesn’t get an ounce of breast milk from me. He is exclusively breastfed by another woman.’
“I was expecting a few ounces to get him some breastmilk once or twice a day. She sent me home with 300 ounces of milk!”
