As I say my youngest daughter donated her kidney.
She knows very well that I have six children.
They are from between the youngest and the oldest,
there are only 6 and 1/2 years, no, I am not Catholic.
[LAUGHTER]
And I was on birth control people, at--
98% of them, only 19.
And so my youngest daughter was the daughter
that I tried stuff that is still illegal, it's not there,
some of the stuff I tried is exciting, I mean,
it's like new directions in medical history.
And she always tells me that if she
had been able to speak she would have said, give me 30 years,
you're going to need me.
And she was right and may I say that
in saying that I always am still pro-choice.
Donor for Lex.
When they tell me that my body might reject,
I think of 30 years ago and the hangers
I shoved inside hard trying to not have you.
I think of the pills, the everything
I gathered against your bulge and you, my stubborn baby
child hunched there in the dark, refusing my refusal.
Suppose this body does say no to yours again.
Again, I feel you buckling in despite me,
fastened to life like the frown on an angel's brow.
