I have an appointment at Planned Parenthood next Thursday for the medical abortion, but as you all know from my previous posts I am unsure of it this time, even though it went perfectly last time. I am starting to think maybe the surgical is my best option, it will be over with quickly and I won't be worrying for 2 weeks about whether it was ( Read more... )
