Congratulations to you and your daughter, all of your family!

We've fought against these anti-abortion fanatics for so many years, one obstacle after another they've thrown up, but when almost half of this country insists a woman must first submit to a vaginal probe, an added prohibitive expense that so many women seeking to end a pregnancy can ill afford, it only shows that we must fight like hell even harder.

When I look at the charts showing which states put what outrageous and immoral demands on all of the women who need to simply have an abortion, but were unfortunate enough to be born within the borders of such places, I can only think that they are trying to take us backwards, back to a time that no woman, none of our daughters, should ever have to return to.

I think of your mama and how very happy she would be to hear your wonderful news!

Hugs to you, Control-Z, and much joy!
