Don Gale hits the mark again with his wise opinion piece, “Stillbirth, abortion and miscarriage need compassion, not judgment!”
I agree with everything he says about what we should do to bring about acceptable results when it comes to helping women prevent the heartbreak of abortion, miscarriage and stillbirth.
I would, however, add one thing. Let’s make sure all options for avoiding pregnancies women do not want, are readily available at a reasonably low cost, and whenever possible, no cost.
