00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.440 align:middle line:84%
As I say my youngest
daughter donated her kidney.

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:08.220 align:middle line:84%
She knows very well that
I have six children.

00:00:08.220 --> 00:00:12.300 align:middle line:84%
They are from between the
youngest and the oldest,

00:00:12.300 --> 00:00:14.745 align:middle line:84%
there are only 6 and 1/2
years, no, I am not Catholic.

00:00:14.745 --> 00:00:17.730 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:19.590 align:middle line:84%
And I was on birth
control people, at--

00:00:19.590 --> 00:00:25.740 align:middle line:90%
98% of them, only 19.

00:00:25.740 --> 00:00:28.350 align:middle line:84%
And so my youngest
daughter was the daughter

00:00:28.350 --> 00:00:31.560 align:middle line:84%
that I tried stuff that is
still illegal, it's not there,

00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:33.570 align:middle line:84%
some of the stuff I tried
is exciting, I mean,

00:00:33.570 --> 00:00:37.590 align:middle line:84%
it's like new directions
in medical history.

00:00:37.590 --> 00:00:40.950 align:middle line:84%
And she always
tells me that if she

00:00:40.950 --> 00:00:45.300 align:middle line:84%
had been able to speak she would
have said, give me 30 years,

00:00:45.300 --> 00:00:48.300 align:middle line:90%
you're going to need me.

00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:50.370 align:middle line:84%
And she was right
and may I say that

00:00:50.370 --> 00:00:55.920 align:middle line:84%
in saying that I always
am still pro-choice.

00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:59.730 align:middle line:90%
Donor for Lex.

00:00:59.730 --> 00:01:03.630 align:middle line:84%
When they tell me that
my body might reject,

00:01:03.630 --> 00:01:07.560 align:middle line:84%
I think of 30 years
ago and the hangers

00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:14.130 align:middle line:84%
I shoved inside hard
trying to not have you.

00:01:14.130 --> 00:01:17.880 align:middle line:84%
I think of the
pills, the everything

00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:23.250 align:middle line:84%
I gathered against your bulge
and you, my stubborn baby

00:01:23.250 --> 00:01:31.860 align:middle line:84%
child hunched there in the
dark, refusing my refusal.

00:01:31.860 --> 00:01:35.940 align:middle line:84%
Suppose this body does
say no to yours again.

00:01:35.940 --> 00:01:40.770 align:middle line:84%
Again, I feel you
buckling in despite me,

00:01:40.770 --> 00:01:49.020 align:middle line:84%
fastened to life like the
frown on an angel's brow.

00:01:49.020 --> 00:01:52.370 align:middle line:90%
[APPLAUSE]

00:01:52.370 --> 00:01:56.000 align:middle line:90%
