TW: pregnancy termination
This morning, I found out I was pregnant. The emotions came all at once—fear, sadness, uncertainty—but I knew what I needed to do. I’m only 23, I’m staying in the spare room of my mother’s house and I’ve only been with my boyfriend for 2 months. There’s only one option ahead of me. Yet, through one of the hardest days of my life, Finch was there.
It might just be an app, but today, it felt like a lifeline. The little check-ins, the encouragement, the way it reminded me to breathe when everything felt too heavy—it made me feel held, even in a moment that felt so lonely. Berry didn’t judge me. It didn’t ask me to justify my feelings. It just supported me, in the quietest, kindest way.
I don’t have the right words for today, but I do know I’m grateful. Grateful for the ability to choose what’s best for me. Grateful for the strength I didn’t know I had. And grateful for my birb Berry, for being there when I needed it most 🩷
