“My husband gave me an ultimatum: go and get an abortion or he would leave. As the sole parents pension was an absolute pittance in those days I felt that I had no choice.… Inside myself I was thinking, “Oh please don’t let this happen; I want to keep this child; I think it will be a boy, a lovely little brother for my daughter.”
