I’ve never looked at you any differently. And I never will. You will always be my amazing sister, and I learn more about you, and from you, practically every day.

I think everything happens for a reason, and everything that we do shapes us into the people we are today. Sometimes you have to make hard choices. If other people judge you or think negatively about something that YOU had to do, then the issue is theirs not yours.

Thank you for sharing, I hope your heart feels a little lighter.

Another huge hug for you from me. I absolutely know you made the decision that needed to be made, because I absolutely know what an incredible person you are. Love.

My heart breaks every time I hear or read a story of someone who has had the experience that you have had. It breaks even more when I hear or read something that condemns people for the choice that you made thus I am VERY glad to read that you have found support from the many responses that have followed from your courage to share a very personal story. I am thankful that you had some really great friends to be there for you and after such a difficult decision and it appears that you have some that are here for you now on those days that the “what-ifs” start to haunt you. Thank you for opening your self up and having the courage to share!

Oh honey, I just want to give you a great big hug right now. I agree with what the others are saying. I don’t judge you and never could.

You were very brave for sharing this.

Sorry, have no idea why my second comment posted here. I’m sounding technologically savvy today, aren’t I?

I just don’t get Twitter. I had an account for awhile and kept getting inundated with tweets from people I didn’t care about and wanted to remove from my follow list but couldn’t for whatever reason. The LA Lakers for example and Randy from My Name is Earl. I never accepted them as a friend or whatever you call it over there and I couldn’t them to go away. Then more uninvited people kept tweeting and I just didn’t have time or patience to figure it all out. So I closed my account.

I agree though, I love the blogging world. Especially the mom/dad bloggers. Such a great community that I’m glad to be a part of. Glad you’ve rejoined us and I look forward to reading more wonderful posts from you.

I can see why that was so difficult to write and thank you for sharing your story. I think it’s stories like that which help us understand all sides of an issue. There is no black and white. The world is full of shades of grey. And we just never know where our choices will lead us. I’m glad you were able to share your story here, hopefully it won’t weigh on you as much anymore.

Kirsten, oh I totally know how you feel. I went through the same thing, when I was even younger. 18 to be exact. And the guy was not there for me – but my life long friend was. And it was about the worst day of my life, to date. I would have a 17 year old. I can’t stand the man that it happened with – he was SUCH a jerk. But a little me, a much older child than our darling Foo. It is hard to think about that. I shared my story with my husband when the time felt right….maybe it will feel right with you and your husband one day, maybe it won’t. But either way, I am so glad you got this off your chest – - and I love youeven more for sharing it with us. I’m so glad I hopped onto theis blog today!
