"My sister lost her baby... and my state requires her to see the ultrasound before she aborts it."
leeleeleelee submitted: “This is the reality of Texas’ ultrasound for abortion bill. A 30 year old Texas woman’s fetus’ heart stopped beating after 12 weeks. The options given were to wait until miscarriage, give birth to it, or to abort it (the preferred, safest option). She has to look at an ultrasound of her already dead fetus and if she looks away, she will have to listen to the Doctor describe it.”

I don’t have anything snarky to say about this. This is heartbreaking. These ultrasound laws are cruel, invasive, and do nothing to lower abortion rates.

Okay, this just makes me so fucking sad. When I graduated high school, my mom had a horrible miscarriage, and if she would have had to do this, it would have broken her heart even more so. The fact that these ultrasound laws exist ANYWHERE absolutely enrages me, disgusts me and makes me want to throw all the things.
This is wrong on so many levels. These laws need to stop.
