Reading that made me so sad for this couple and angry that they had to be tortured like this because these lawmakers make such a law. The requirement that the Dr had to point out the "healthy parts"...as opposed to the medical fact of what was wrong....The quote that really got me too was when the Doctor said to them that when they came back the next day that he then would give them what they needed in terms of consult and care.

and

All I can do is donate to planned parenthood, emilys list etc and speak out....and oh yes, get as many women voters (and the men who love and respect women truly) to vote this November and get these Vile GOP scum out of office and voting in more Women, Progressives and President Obama.
