What really matters



On Thursdays Rosana does sonograms for the pregnant girls coming into the clinic. So yesterday at Queens I was able to see a sonogram for the first time. At that moment I didn’t know who was more nervous, the pregnant girl or me. It was something amazing that I am never going to forget.


She was very happy about the idea of having a baby finally. She had had an abortion before because of the pressure of her family. She decided to keep the baby. Now she only cares if the baby is going to be boy or girl. Her boyfriend wants it to be a boy, but she would be happier if it was a girl.


What really matters is that the baby is going to live this time.
