The women in my father's practice for whom he did abortions educated me and taught me that abortion is about women's hopes, dreams, potential, the rest of their lives. Abortion is a matter of survival for women.

It is not a matter of convenience, religion, politics, semantics, or public "concern". Abortion is a matter of survival for women, and has been since the dawn of time.

I have said before and will say again, over and over the anti-abortion faction will say it: All life is sacred, just not female life. And not George Tiller's life, either.
