I learned as an adult that my mother had an illegal abortion when she was in her early forties. She had already raised three girls, and her marriage was on seriously shakey grounds due to my father's infidelity. (I can't believe I am telling this to strangers).
Do I condemn her for her choice and mourn the loss of a potential sibling? Absolutely not.
