i don’t give a single fuck why a woman chooses an abortion. she could’ve simply decided she doesn’t want to be pregnant anymore. her partner could’ve looked at her the wrong way. fetus deletus for any reason idgaf.
My mom had a medical abortion before my brother or I were born. The fetus had developed with most of its organs on the outside of the body. At the time, it would have survived hours or maybe days in complete agony. This is why abortion should be accessible.
If I were pregnant and informed that my fetus had Down syndrome I would absolutely abort. No amount of social media romanticizing of profound disability would change my mind. Contrary to popular opinion, you need more than love to care for a disabled child.
My first year in case management we had an elderly woman found down at the grocery store. She was somnolent then confused. Frail. Kept mentioning a name when she finally woke up — we thought it might be a dog or cat so we called animal control.
It was her disabled son who hadn’t eaten in days, alone.
Our social nets are small and they are shrinking.
But hey, cute tractor video.
i read steinbeck at 15 bc he was featured in one tree hill. i found daft punk through that pentatonix mashup. i watched a room with a view bc a favorite professors loved it. These are all favorites of mine now. you arent born with cultural knowledge, you have to find it somewhere
