‘This is not just about me’: Jacksonville woman shares her abortion story after Roe draft leaked

She had an illegal abortion in New York City in 1962. She remembers a time when women didn’t have a choice.

Editor’s note: The details in this story may be triggering or disturbing for some people. Discretion is advised.,“I was 17 ½, and I was raped and wound up pregnant,” the woman recounted. “When I was raped, I was a virgin. I was a nice girl, a good girl, and back then, if a woman got pregnant, even if it was a fella she dated for years, she was told she was no good.”

“Maybe I wouldn’t make it. Maybe I would be bleeding out. They had no assurances of anything,” she said. “There wasn’t any anethsia like they do today.”“I was not hesitant because I was a good girl. I was a lady. I needed to go through the rest of my life knowing I was pure,” she said. “Believe me, it wasn’t fun. I can remember laying on that table and I remember I’m moaning because it was so painful. A lot is coming back as I’m talking about it.
