Why We March
  
*Mumble mumble* years ago, a young woman found her life shattered. She had fallen for a man who turned out to be a cad. 
He left her alone and pregnant, to return to a wife and kids that she had known nothing about. Scared and humiliated, she traveled to Texas.
There she gave birth to a son. The nurse handed her the baby, and then realized that this was an adoption case and took him away.
Sobbing, she thought “He's going to a better life. He's going to people who will love and care for him, as I can't”
And I did.
But she was wrong. She may not have been able to care for me, but I never for a moment believed that she didn't love me.
35 years later we met again, for the first time, and I told her that. And that's why I have 2 moms. 
This is what #MarchForLife means to me.
