These stories are vivid, but they also sustain the narrative that abortions have to be “worthy” by being emotionally devastating. Sometimes people don’t want to be pregnant, and that’s okay.

Also, I'm pro-abortion, because abortion is a great way for people who don't want to be pregnant to not be pregnant anymore.
