They said
He would never live a real life
They said
He would be constantly ridiculed
They said
It would be my fault he's this way
They said
It was stupid to get pregnant at 43
They said
He should have been an abortion
I told them
It was my life
I told them
It was my choice
I told them
I would love him just like my other children
I told them
I would raise him to the best of my ability
I told them
I have no regrets
They said
He was a mistake
They said
He would never achieve anything
They said
He was ugly
I told them
He's my son
I told them
He achieves life everyday
I told them
He was my most beautiful child
They said
He would grow up to resent me
They said
It was a long and difficult road ahead
They said
It will cost you a fortune
I told them
I will love him unconditionally no matter what happens
