I am so sorry that you are facing this decision. If you do not mind sharing, why do you have to leave the state for an abortion? I ask because I had to have my last pregnancy terminated. Our state has very specific regulations on late term abortions. But since my case met those qualifications my own OB performed the operation at our local hospital and I was immediately put in touch with local professionals that specifically dealt with a loss such as this. Insurance also covered everything; my inpatient hospitalization, the procedure, medication and all therapy involved (some of which was not exactly voluntary).

I am so angry that your OB would make you sneak like a thief in the night to go to a clinic in another state to deal with strangers during this very difficult time! I felt it was thoughtless that I had to be housed on the maternity ward (even though I was in a private room )! What kind of a Dr makes you deal with this all on your own?!? I cannot imagine being treated this way!
