As the Supreme Court appears poised to reverse Roe v. Wade and the right to abortion this month, 10 women ages 25 to 82 are sharing their personal abortion experiences.
"We are your grandmothers, your mothers, your daughters. And we cannot go back," the group said in unison.
In a new video shared by Runaway Train Productions, a number of women recounted the "barbaric" conditions in which they had illegal abortions prior to the procedure becoming a constitutional right, detailing the unsafe conditions they had to rely on.
"The doctor found a motel, snuck me in the back and performed the abortion on the dining room table. Afterward, he drove me back to the hotel and dropped me on the sidewalk like a bag of dirty laundry," one woman recalled. "I felt so humiliated and disregarded as a human being. However, I was a lucky one. I was not killed and I still had my fertility."
Another woman shared, "I had an abortion because I was raped. The doctor performed the abortion without anesthesia and yelled, 'This no hurt. This no hurt.' The abortion was almost worse than the rape."
According to the Guttmacher Institute, nearly 1 in 4 women in America will have an abortion by age 45. The criminalization of the procedure forced women into unsafe conditions that led to anguish, injury, infertility, and even death.
Additionally, the emotional clip includes the stories of women who received their abortions after the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, expressing the "empowerment" they felt to have access to sterile doctor's offices, nurses, anesthesia and compassionate care.

Murderers all.
Who didn’t know this was coming?
More barbaric than murdering their own children? Even most animals don’t do that.
Must have been hell for a fetus to be ripped to pieces before Roe v. Wade.
For the umpteenth time, NOBODY is making you ‘go back’.
Just take the very small, personal responsibility of keeping in reserve the resources needed to get to another State.
Oh more stories , YAWN
Years ago, I read that the vast majority of pre-Roe abortions were performed on the sly by pro-abortion doctors, not by women with coat hangers. Up here in Washington State, there was a Dr. Franz Koome who publicly came out as an abortionist. He died a few years later when he was bucked from a horse. (Seriously.)
“I had an abortion because I was raped.”
Almost every state has an exception for rape, incest and the mother’s life is in danger.
Furthermore, lots of states will continue to provide all the abortion “services” you so desperately at any time during pregnancy up to partial birth. So just travel to one of the BARBARIC states that performs those “services.”
They are making a ridiculous mountain out of mole hill.
Exactly why I’m posting these. As Joan Crawford would say “Cristina! No wire hangers ever!!”
yawn
Then move to New York or California where you can murder your kid right in the birth canal
For you all yawn see post 8 and post 10.
BREAKING! Supreme Court denied authority to decree new constitutional rights! Who knew? 😳👍😂
Every abortion is barbaric!
Agreed. They murder babies and love it. They are also so brazen about it too.
Problem solved.
Whenever a compromise(rape/incest)was discussed in the past, they'd throw a conniption, then double down by demanding unlimited access...at any term.
Now...they can eat feces...or continue to be irresponsible and find a baby-killer state.
The decision shows America still has a "little" sign of life left.
The Supreme Court did not reverse the right to abortion. People magazine lies.
