#TellYourStory how #RoeVsWade affected you. Here’s mine.

I was 17. I didn’t have high self esteem. My parents were either emotionally vacant or physically gone. I equated sex with love. I was wrong. The next part is so much like #ChristineBlasseyFord, I felt like I knew her…
My “boyfriend” took me to a party. He even came inside to meet my dad. No one had done that. I felt loved…until a couple hours later. He took me to a room in the back of the house. We’d been drinking. I had consensual sex with him. He said he needed to use the bathroom…

#BlackInTheIvory is being a PGY2 ortho res in a nasty divorce & almost losing my kid. As a PGY4, my 7 yo son had an accident where he ran into a pole @ recess with his face (but made the catch!) I was conflicted btwn Mother’s instinct vs being seen as the ‘lazy’ blk resident. 1/

My Sports attending heard & said “I hope you don’t think you’re going anywhere, we still have patients to see in clinic.” She told me if I left clinic that “she would make sure I was disciplined.” Thankfully my live-in nanny brought my bleeding son to our Sports clinic. 3/
