Abortion Stories Reveal Abuse
& Sorrow "I counted four movements, and she
was gone." – Dana, 42 New York Magazine recently compiled the
personal abortion testimonies of 26 U.S. women in a November 10 piece entitled My Abortion.
There is no blatant bias for- or against abortion
in the author’s introduction, but a few telling trends ruminate
throughout the women’s testimonies she compiled. Namely: many women felt
coerced; most women admit that they regret the decision to abort; and in
many cases the way women were treated by the abortionist and his staff
stands
out as a haunting memory. The few testimonies that do not chronicle
feelings of regret or sadness (i.e., Anya, who said, "I never think

state level contributes to the arsenal that will one day overturn Roe v.
Wade.
Every piece of state legislation has the potential to ultimately become
the modern-day Supreme Court case that will rule abortion on-demand
unconstitutional. In the process, local legislation on the state level
incurs grassroots interest, and large numbers of local citizens are able
to
understand Life issues on a more personal level than if they were
happening far away in DC.

Their Week of Failure
Abortion mills, supposedly advocating “choice,” have failed for forty
years to inform women of all of their choices when it comes to
pregnancy. Abortion facilities advocate choice because, well, it’s their
main
source of revenue. They don’t profit off of other pregnancy outcomes.
Vulnerable women in unplanned pregnancy situations are frequently also
pressured into this choice by a partner or relative. The Silent No More
Awareness Campaign reveals thousands of women’s testimonies stating that
they did not know there were other options, such parenting with the
support of organizations that could help them with their expenses, or
adoption.
Every voice was echoing the same word: abortion. Continue reading -->
