Roe v Wade Response to CNN Request

​When I was a teenager in the 1960s I was impregnated by rape. The rapist was a sexual predator  "boyfriend" from whom I could not escape. Abortion was unavailable. That catastrophic pregnancy traumatized me horribly for my entire life. I was rescued by a confidential adoption, which was "overturned" over 30 yrs. later and my private information was then given to a predatory adoptee who hunted me down like an animal. I have never recovered from this profound trauma and still, at 74 years old, struggle with this. I cannot even hear the word "adoptee" without having a frightening flashback. My heart goes out to all women whose bodies will now be under the control of a predatory government. Reproductive trauma is profoundly real. If I could have garnered the nerve, I would have ended my life at 16. I have in the past regretted my lack of courage to take a razorblade to my wrists.
