Time now for a refresher from my Dr Laura Call of the Day archives.

Remember, you can hear my live radio program weekdays, 2 to 5 p.m.

Eastern time on Serious XM Triumph 2011.

Stephanie, welcome to the program.

Thank you.

Hi Stephanie, I understand you'd like to talk about a decision you made that you thought was right.

Well at the time I thought it was right but it definitely was not a good decision.

When I had turned 18 and had just graduated high school. Shortly after that I found out I was

pregnant and I grew up in a very strict Catholic family household. I'm sorry that is adorable way to say I found out.

It's like you know what happens without us doing anything? No I I knew what are you doing. Who were you having sex with?

Well, it was a one night stand.

And how did you find the guy for the one night stand?

Well, we were at the beach and he was actually a police officer that was walking the beach area trying to keep things in order.

And I just had a conversation with him

and he took me out for a drink later on that evening, we got together that evening.

And how old were you?

I had just graduated high school and I was 18. I thought you said that.

Yes. Where did your parents think you were, they knew I was at the beach with a lot of friends.

I see. Yes. Okay.

So after I've made the decision to end the pregnancy and have an abortion and that is one thing that I've always regretted doing.

I am 53 now and I've never had children and I am married I've been married for

it will be 14 years in May when I married them the man that I married, I found, I had always known shortly after I met him that he was sterile.
