Phillipines Abortion Queries

Why do we seem to be getting so many
people from the Phillipines asking about
abortions? What I mean is, why are they
coming .H.E.R.E to ask?

I don't know....perhaps they feel that
Americans know more about the subject.

They need a place to go where abortion is
actually legal, so that their questions
can be answered.
BC is available there, but because of the
lack of education and discussion about
sex, many just do not think to use it.
Cytotec is used by many women around the
world, it induces contractions which cause
a miscarriage, but it is not safe.

But .Cari, you must feel ever so burdened
to keep on having to say the same things
over and over again.
In the pro-choice forum, .Kypros made the
suggestion that the info about cytotec
should be made available on the medical
abortion board as a sticky so people can
access the information if they want it. I
had my reservations about that but I'm
wondering if it might actually be a good
idea.
Or perhaps it would be better to have a
link to that website you refer people to
(sorry I forget the name offhand) so that
you don't have to keep on answering the
same questions over and over and also, if
you're not around, the person is not left
hanging without the answer that others are
not qualified to give.

They need access to that website, because
it sells BOTH the abortion pill and
cytotec, which is the safest and best way
to have a miscarriage.

Ok I'll pm admin and ask if we can have
the web address as a sticky.

Oh yeah.. I forgot to say something 
I do not feel burdened by giving the info,
but I do feel a sense of uncertainty.
I cannot be there with them to ensure that
all pills are used correctly, or ensure
that their bleeding is within normal
limits.
Abortion should not be illegal in any
country.

Hi Trina =)
Yes, it is good to see you too =)
My dad has basically withered away to a
'terri shiavo' like state, except that he
can swallow food and take water.
He no longer knows who I am, or who any of
us are.
Seeing that once strong, extremely
intelligent man wither away to nothing,
is very sad.
I have had a lot on my plate recently, so
my online time has dwindled..

Cairy....I am so sorry to hear this.
Watching this happen to anyone...let alone
a parent is heart wrenching. I watched my
mother die a very debilitating death from
cancer....but at least she recognized me
until the end. I can't even imagine the
pain you are going through. You and your
family will be in my thoughts.

It's really hard for me..
Basically, I was molested by my uncle for
a number of years, it happened when I was
5.(started)
Without going into long drawn out details,
my parents took his side, because they
said that the 'bond' of family is more
important :/
It's especially hard because I have a lot
of anger towards them even to this day,
yet so much sadness.
Cancer is a horrible, painful death =( I
am comforted by the fact that at least my
father is not in pain ..

Cari...your heart is kind. I hope that
someday you are able to get beyond the
anger and sadness. Life is too short for
either. Again...I will keep you in my
thoughts.
