On January 8th, 2014, I was two weeks away from turning 13 years old. My mom told me that she had had an abortion. We were at church, and we were driving my younger siblings off to Faith Formation.
I had absolutely no idea about this abortion. I was shocked. I felt angry, sad. I felt guilty for every time I had said that I'd wanted a brother, an older brother or sister.
Then later that night just by chance--actually by the providence of God--my brother and my sisters also found out about it, even though we were weren't planning on telling them. And now we stand here, I stand here, I know my brother David stands right next to me, and we are silent no more.
