TL;DR - We are together. She unwillingly had an abortion for both her health and her parents. Struggling with loss on multiple fronts.

Summary of Events in the Past Month

So um... Bit hard to find a starting point so this will probably be a jumble of things. She got an abortion little bit ago primarily because it was heavily effecting her health. She got to a point where all she could eat was broth... Flavored water imo and nothing else. It was bad and she got to where she was just a skeleton. No other way to put it but the pregnancy was killing her and she didn't have the energy to do much but lay in bed all day. I stayed with her and comforted her daily. This was about 8 or 9 days after the post or so and I had gotten her away from her parents. Her parents were already trying to force her into a abortion. Made it into disowning her if she didn't from what I can gather. She didn't care and wanted to have the baby either way. She really wanted Cecelia which is what we opted to name the baby. In the end we both came to the conclusion that she wouldn't be able to have it even if she wanted after seeing a very gracious understandable doctor. Not much I can do in regards to the 'Leo' situation concerning her father. Considering she wants nothing to happen to him or her mother whom she still loves but are now cut out. She is doing better now both physically and mentally, just taking iron pills and can eat everything she used too. Still working on her weight but that will improve with time. She is still in college despite this except I'm now paying for it as I detailed to her parents last I saw them 3 weeks ago or so. She doesn't need to worry about anything as I got it all covered and trying my best to support her through the loss of the baby. I can only hope now that we can move forward, learn from this and one day hopefully actually start a family. Thank you to all of you who gave advice and helped me think of courses of action to take. This will probably be my last post on reddit so goodbye everyone and again thank you for the small amount of time in your life that you allowed us to take up.
