Abortion is Health Care

When Kim* found out she was pregnant last year, she was over the moon. It had been something she and her husband had hoped and planned for.
But at her 13-week appointment, her doctors could no longer find a fetal heartbeat. Utterly grief-stricken, Kim now had to decide how to medically end her unviable pregnancy. She couldn't imagine spending another day pregnant knowing the fetus was already gone, so she chose to take abortion medication and miscarry at home.
In many states like Florida and Iowa that ban abortion at just six weeks (before many people even know they're pregnant), this option would not have been available to Kim.
You don't need me to tell you that it should be. Abortion is healthcare, and everyone, regardless of who they are, should have access. Your gift today brings us closer to a reality where abortion care is standard.

“You cannot imagine the psychological and physical effects of a miscarriage until you experience it. I wouldn't wish it on anyone who has a desire to bring a pregnancy to term.”

After miscarrying at home, she was ready to take her grief and move forward with it. But two weeks later, Kim felt a splitting headache, then inescapable chills. Her body hadn't fully let go of her pregnancy and had developed sepsis. She needed an emergency dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure, where doctors surgically removed remaining fetal tissue from inside the uterus--a.k.a. abortion care.
“I could have died that day,” Kim said. If she had been in a state like Louisiana or Tennessee with abortion bans that include criminal penalties for care, she very well might have.
You and I know reproductive justice is not a matter of morality. It's just healthcare. For Kim and birthing people in her shoes, please make a gift today to ensure all people, regardless of who or where they are, have access to the care they need.

P.S. When Kim told us her story, she was healthy at 20 weeks pregnant, but the grief of that past experience still lingers. For Kim, there were a lot of “ifs”… if she hadn't had the option to end her pregnancy on her terms… if her doctors' hands were bound by bogus laws and unable to treat her for fear of legal ramifications… but for so many birthing people, those aren't ifs. Your gift today moves us closer to a future where everyone has access to the care they need, no matter what.
