Surprising Salon.com letter on abortion trauma
Salon.com is typically known as a radically-pro-abortion news outlet. It’s surprising to see this incredibly raw, moving first-person account of one woman’s distress following her recent abortion:

Dear Reader,
In 2026, Live Action is heading straight where the battle is fiercest: college campuses.

Your support today will help train and equip young leaders, bring Live Action’s educational content into academic environments, host on-campus events and debates, and empower students to challenge the pro-abortion status quo with truth and compassion.
Invest in pro-life grassroots outreach and cultural formation with your DOUBLED year-end gift!
I haven’t dated, least of all had sex with anyone, since that day. It feels like a part of me died that day and will never return.
I am no longer upset about the end of our relationship (good riddance!) but I am truly disturbed by the entire experience. I have nightmares about my experience at the clinic, though I know they followed every medical and legal step to the T. I wish I could forgive myself and move on, but I just can’t. I wake up every morning and it is the best minute of my life before the knowledge of what happened returns to me and the cycle of sadness and regret begins all over again.
Read the whole letter (and Salon’s rather wimpy response) here. Anyone seeking healing after an abortion can get help from groups like Rachel’s Vineyard.
