In the good old days...

Reading the following made my blood run cold:
When I was a first-year intern at the Barnes Hospital in St. Louis, the first patient I had was a woman who’d had 11 children and had self-aborted herself, because she couldn’t get a legal abortion, with some instrument of some kind. And I was in charge of her case, as a young intern, with her intestine coming out of her vagina because she’d perforated the vagina with the instrument. And she had massive infection, multiple abscesses in all the vital organs in the body and she died.
We couldn't possibly go back to those days...could we?

In more positive news, Target fired a pharmicist's sorry ass after she refused to dispense Plan B...and refused to refer the customer to another pharmacist.
