Sharing this post from my other social media account, it captures my sentiment from todays SCOTUS Ruling. Sadly, this is the beginning of our rights in America being taken away.
Erin Gallagher (She/Her)
The stat that 1 in 4 women will have an abortion over the course of her life is not true.
It’s much higher than that.
Because I had an abortion when I was 20, I was able to finish college, to pursue my dreams, to succeed in my career, to become a mother when I was ready.
Almost every single woman I know and love has had an abortion…
…because she became pregnant when she didn’t want to be
…because she was r***d and became pregnant
…because she miscarried and needed medical intervention
…because she had an ectopic pregnancy
…because her own life was in danger
The list goes on.
Today, the Supreme Court has ruled on Dobbs v. Jackson and stripped women and people seeking abortions of their long-held rights to control their bodies.
2022 is now a less safe place for women than 1982 when I was born or 1973 when Roe v Wade was decided, a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States generally protects women’s liberty to choose to have an abortion.
If you are in need of access to a safe abortion and in a place where you are not able to receive the medical care you deserve, please DM me. I will help you.
