Vote Yes on Amendment 4

The year was 1980, the place, New York. My husband and I were ecstatic to be four months pregnant. I literally told everyone, family, friends, people on the street, everyone. Then it happened. I woke up feeling painful cramps and a bit lightheaded. I somehow made it to the bathroom. I don’t remember much after that. My husband found me on the bathroom floor surrounded by blood. He quickly drove me to the hospital and they did a D&C. I was able to go home, rest, and two days later I was back to work. A year and a half later I gave birth to a baby boy and two years after that a baby girl. Life was good.  That was 1980 and I was in New York. Picture if it was today and in Florida. My husband would rush me to a local hospital and they would tell me to go home and not come back till I was bleeding out and about to die, and then, if it wasn’t too late, they would help me. If I lived, would I be able to have children? Maybe! I know this isn’t a very dramatic story like the ones you hear at rallies and on TV but it’s my story and the story of so many women. We must vote YES ON AMENDMENT 4!!!
