"If I had become pregnant at 12 years old by my own brother, I would not have been able to have an abortion in my own country with the support and care and love that I needed. Nobody wants to talk about incest, sadly it happens. Women need safe and supportive care when and where they need it for whatever reason."

"I rang the Well Woman clinic and went got an internal scan. There were products of conception in my womb and I was told to get to the hospital straight away. I was hysterical. I got into the car, got to the hospital, stood in the little cubicle waiting, telling them I was sorry." "Then I felt a gush. I ran to the bathroom. What was left of the baby was now all over my legs, my shoes and the floor. I remember bending down trying to clean it. I was just so torn apart with grief and anger that this had happened. I had to have a procedure to remove the rest the following morning and in that time, nobody really spoke to me or cared what I’d been through."

"I think because people are honestly empathetic, good, and want to care for others. The stories highlight such vast reasons a person might need an abortion, or how their continued pregnancy and birth was impacted by the 8th. "So many reasons that the general public had never considered, and are horrified that their fellow citizens and residents are not receiving adequate and compassionate care."
