Rather than ask a question that is WAY too personal, I will ask how many people actually KNOW someone who has had an abortion?

Well, a very good friend of mine from college (we no longer speak, but for other reasons) had three abortions (yes, three). I went with her to the first one, to be supportive, and I think that I was more freaked out about it than she was, and remember sitting there in the waiting room reading the information about the procedure and it scared the living crap out of me (I am deathly afraid of medical procedures). I am thankful to say that I have never been in a position to have to make such a decision -- I actually think that *I* learned more from her experience than she did.
Other than that, I would guess that there are women I know now who have had an abortion, and I don't know about it. I'm sure we all know someone who has, whether we know it or not.
