I found out I was pregnant, 1 yr ago: due to worsening epilepsy(uncontrolled by meds), La. laws, no abortion clinics within 4hr’s, & high cost. I ordered cytotec online, the same thing I’d be given by a Dr & sent home w/ for $600
But, due to women.. https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2018/10/20/17999996/abortion-mail-online-mifepristone-misoprostol

..who’ve also done this out of desperation & been charged w/ feticide, women are fearful of seeking help over excessive bleeding/partial termination. At 1 point, I was afraid I was bleeding way too much, but avoided the E.R., for fear of being reported ! This will get worse..

due to the anti-choice laws being recklessly implemented. I chose this route b/c we couldn’t afford $600 + 2 days of hotel/babysitter & husband (16 yrs) going 2 days w/o work due to La law req’ing an U/S 24hr in adv. & the only Planned Parenthood in La. can’t perform abortions.

I chose termination b/c I couldn’t risk the assault on my brain, another pregnancy would bring. My 1st bad sz.(Tonic Clonic) occurred during my last pregnancy (6 yrs ago)& just kept coming ! It’s catamenial, meaning my hormones (menses/pregnancy) provoke sz’s.
I did this out...

Of desperation, but this will become the only way for women in states like mine, working tirelessly to undo Roe V. Wade. I’m not advocating it, I’m sending up a warning that some of us have already been this desperate.
