Sorry to hear about your loss - that is really tacky on behalf of the church worker.

OMG those illustrations!

Yeah I had someone from a crazy anti-abortion league get all up in my face while I was extremely pregnant to thank me for 'making the right choice' outside of my OB/Gyn's office. If I wasn't unreasonably large and uncomfortable (and gestating) I would have seriously considered punching him in y'know "self defense".

Good for you in being a clinic escort! Please share with us if/when you get plastic fetuses thrown at you.

Yeah - I also noticed that Wednesday is the day the Quiverfull families (which I didn't know were on the east coast) come in to town.

Where is everyone getting these fetus dolls????

And that is fair enough. I think the judge talked out of turn, but I don't think it was the most egregious thing out there.

Thank you.

It's very psychologically abusive. My MIL is bulimic, as in she takes a ton of laxatives after consuming a few bottles of wine. Her daughter is severely anorexic and 'diabulimic' meaning that she overdoses herself on insulin to lose weight. When my SIL came out of hospital, the first thing her lovely mother did was…
