I'm still pro-choice because no good comes from forcing a woman to go through a pregnancy and have a baby she doesn't want. And history shows that making abortion illegal doesn't stop it, it just makes it unsafe.
The problem is that PP somehow became the gatekeeper of abortions, and they are a fucked up organization. I've changed my viewpoint on them over the years.
As unhappy an event as it is, abortion is a fact of life. It is as old as humankind, and no law or opinion will ever stop it. It just needs to be pried from organizations that want to turn it into a profit and an experiment.
If our culture could start encouraging adoption, and supporting pregnant women, abortions could stop. This thinking...' abortion is the only answer' is hopeless.
Abortion is murder. Period
Aborting the baby is not necessary to save the mother's life. Medicine has advanced so that BOTH the mother's life and baby's life can be saved. As in all medical emergencies, there are risks, but to purposefully kill the baby is not necessary.

Fair enough. I just personally believe that I have no right to dictate to others on matters that pertain to their own body. I have a genetic disorder that makes me VERY prone to deadly blood clots if pregnant. There are shots that will neutralize the blood clots, allowing me to have a normal pregnancy, however without insurance those shots over a nine month period add up to about $10k. So, I can understand how it can be a very stressful decision.

I hope and pray that should you become pregnant, all will be well. Both physically, and financially. God bless.
