Hi, my name is Fern. I live in a state where abortion is illegal this is seriously a last resort for me so please share if you can’t donate. my friend suggested twitter and tumblr since he’s seen other people raise funds here.
Last week I made the difficult decision to leave an abusive relationship. I stayed longer than I should because of finances, but now I’m stuck with an unwanted pregnancy. I’m still in school and financially unable to support a child. I asked my parents for help but they are apposed to abortion and are recommending I carry to term but I’m not ready for that. I’m panicking and scared.
I really need help, mostly for getting to and from the nearest location that I can get a surgical abortion done, as it’s already too late for me to try the pill method. I tried to do the pill method last week but I didn’t make the appointment. At 10 weeks now I’m forced to have a surgical abortion and the nearest location is 4 and a half hours away.
I need help getting there and back since I don’t have a reliable vehicle so I might need to pay a friend to drive me. I also need to pay for some of the cost of the abortion, which is around 700.
I will also be using the donations to get this procedure done, and paying for mscellaneous stuff like the gas money, drinks and food for the drive, an oil change probably, and post surgery healing items such as a heating pad, midol, comfort items, pads..
Thank you for taking the time to read this, this is incredibly urgent so please share if you can’t donate.
Why didn’t they let me be a child? I want to be a child now, and I can’t be, so it burns up inside of me, all this anger, something that I can’t stop. I was continuously denied the opportunity to be anything but exactly what they wanted. They didn’t get that anyway, so what a waste. All that time spent trying to turn me into someone I wasn’t, and it didn’t help any of us.
Its okay if you’re not who you thought you would be, take all the time to grieve the person you tried so hard to become when you wanted to better yourself and learn from your past mistakes. But its also okay to just love the person you are now and learn to get to know that person better. There is no shame in being who you are, even if you still have a lot to learn. You don’t always have to upgrade yourself, sometimes there is peace in appreciating who you are and what you have right now.
