I agree that the doctor probably just wanted his paycheck, but none of us will ever know. I personally have never had an abortion, so I don’t know what it is like to have to go through with a decision like that. I had my first child at the age of 17 and my family is doing well. She is going to be 16 soon. I encourage her to abstain from sex so that she will never have to worry. The only thing any of us can do with our sins of the past is to move forward and educate others so that they refrain from sin themselves. Keep doing what you are doing Abby. God has a purpose for you (:
