“I was finishing college, and felt a lot of pressure from my ex- boyfriend to have an abortion. I had just interviewed for medical school. I was scared that my dream of becoming a doctor, something that I had worked hard for, wouldn’t happen with a baby. When I had my ultrasound at Positive Options, it was a wake up call.

Abortion was not something I wanted to do. I decided that even though medical school would be hard, it’s about how bad you want things and what you’re willing to to do to make those things happen. I was encouraged to follow my dream. Evelyn has become a part of it. This summer we will begin medical school together. Parenting was the best decision for me.”
