Emma Beck

Freedom of speech on abortion is so low and apathy so high that I am commonly asked–there are repercussions to having one? Women simply are not made aware. Yes there are, and documented by peer-reviewed medical analysis, not basement research operations.

Now those medical repercussions are not the main reason to avoid abortion; I would very much prefer to keep medical repercussions separate from the metaphysical issues of when life begins and why we should care.

That said, we should never conceal when women die after abortion. Remember Emma Beck, and now turn your thoughts toward Manon Jones, too. That’s her picture, above, with her dad. She died two weeks after her abortion. She was 18.

This ought to be front page news in every paper across the globe.

Emma Beck’s suicide note read as follows:

Living is hell for me. I should never have had an abortion…I see now I would have been a good mum. I told everyone I didn’t want to do it, even at the hospital…

In February the following year, the night before her 31st birthday, Miss Beck hanged herself at her home in Helston.

This is not the first time I have heard a woman tell her story and say that she told the abortionist she did not want an abortion. It is in fact probably closer to the tenth time. I’m starting to understand how choice-friendly these people are. What part of “I don’t want to do this” don’t they understand?

But I got to hear the other women say it live, instead of reading it in a suicide note.

I wrote about the increased risk of depression, suicide, suicide ideation and mental health episodes the result of abortion here. It’s a link becoming increasingly clear to just about everyone who cares enough to see it. And this, unfortunately, does not include most of those groups advocating for “women’s rights,” who insist on castigating the evidence as part of a pro-life conspiracy.

May Emma Beck rest in peace.

Just legal, not safe or rare
