Choice

[spacebug]

One of my lj friends posted this recently. I found it well worth reading. It's the story of a woman and her experience with abortion. It is well written, informative, candid, funny, frustrating, but most of all it is real. I found myself thinking how easily I could be this woman, about how I'd feel about this kind of experience, about the kinds of choices I'd have to make.

Today I got an email from Planned Parenthood MN/SD, and decided to pledge two protesters on Good Friday.

That was worth reading. I've been through a surgical abortion myself (I didn't share it like she did because at the time I just wanted to deal with it and not dwell) and my experience was very, very different than hers, thanks entirely to the Planned Parenthood clinics I went to.
