The Sixth Street Bridge

At the tender age of 17, I walked across this bridge, alone, into Downtown Pittsburgh, with $300 in my pocket that my mother had given me to get an abortion. I went into the Fulton Building (in the picture) and did what I was told to do. I didn't have a choice - if I did, I wouldn't have chosen abortion.

Merry Christmas Grace.
For the one who should be here, but isn't. For the one who I have to grieve for in the shadows. The one who no amount of presents under a twinkly tree can make up for. I am still learning how to grieve for you and how to love you without hurting myself. Just put your sisters to bed...wishing you were here.
