Board of Health,
If we have standards on facilities that care for our pets, why would we deny those standards to women" Are womens lives worth less than our dogs" Abortion is NOT the only option! There are consequences to a womans health when she has an abortion, and some might be long term such as an increased risk for breast cancer. I have a friend who was never able to have a child after having two abortions. Women dont often hear about the risks to abortion, but often feel pressured into it by others. To deny these women in duress access to basic standards of care and a qualified staff is beyond comprehension in the State of Virginia in 2014! Should it be said of Virginia that our dogs get higher standards of care than our women" Mary Kapp
