Hysterectomy Quotes

One day I walked into an operating room, to just be an observant, which we would do generally, as a medical resident. They were performing this hysterectomy, which was a caesarean section.

And it was put in a bucket and set in the corner of the room, and everybody in the room just pretended that they didn't hear it. And the baby died. And I walked out of that room a different person... Roe v. Wade is a reflection of the moral climate of the country, because the law was being defied, and then the law was changed, the law sort of caught up with the culture.

Back in my mid-20s I was told I'd never be able to have children as I wasn't having periods.

I chose not to have the operation, and am so glad I didn't.
