"Abortion can be done here in town; anonymously, quickly, for money. Special addresses are passed on to friends and colleagues of locations where a woman can obtain an abortion. One can also check the legal ads in the papers.? Yesterday we called such a number. Within a couple of minutes of questioning we were offered the option of receiving a pill delivery (RU 486) to our home, or having the abortion performed in the clinic?
