conditions, like going into sepsis, before doctors could legally perform abortions to treat life-threatening pregnancies., Hannah Matthews reminds us that there is so much more to abortion access than just the law. As an abortion doula and clinic worker, Matthews is a care worker, and she discusses the role care work can provide as a theory of change within the reproductive health space.
“The two abortion processes my body went through were absolutely necessary, and they were healthy and safe, and they were made possible and even joyful by my communities. … I’m so grateful for them. They were beautiful and positive experiences,” she wrote. “And also? I grieve them. I have felt deep sadness, physical ache and the deep hollowing of loss. And that’s okay for me to share.”
In one story, Matthews shares the experience of Tessa, a former member of Students for Life. Once staunchly anti-choice, Tessa grew frustrated with the militancy of the group and eventually identified as pro-choice. Still, she described feeling grief after her own abortion, saying, “As ardently pro-choice as I am, I still felt that there was something of a soul when I got the abortion.
