Afterwards
If abortion is your final choice… we still remain an advocate for you!
- Although the services LC Clinic offers does NOT include abortion, or referrals for abortion, we honor your right to choose, and do NOT profit from whatever choice you make.
- If you do choose to abort, you may need support and care AFTER your abortion.
- You may need a place where you can come for help; a place with no ties to your abortion procedure and/or experience.
Your choice for abortion may provide great relief initially. However, you may experience what many women have faced days, months and years after their abortion. Many women carry an incredible burden, while wearing smiles on their faces. You may, as others do, struggle for years with repressed memories, guilt, shame, and depression. Most women feel they are not allowed to talk about their abortion experience because it was their “choice.” Don’t let this happen to you!
LC Clinic services include abortion recovery support.
If you are struggling with a past abortion experience, either recently or long ago, we can help.
Make an appointment today to meet with a caring LC Clinic peer counselor to learn more about our after abortion support.
It was supposed to be a quick fix...the only way to keep your life on track. But as hard as you try, the memories of your abortion won't stay buried.
