What you sound like

I'm a 24 year old lady living in Charlotte, North Carolina. I like all kinds of things, like TV, Batman, animals, video games, and funny.
This morning I went to Planned Parenthood to get a new prescription for birth control. It was a comfortable, quiet waiting room with a radio playing NPR. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. While I waited, several other young women came and went. The nurse was kind, the doctor was respectful. I paid $71 for the appointment and bought 3 months of pills from them. I’m uninsured and unemployed, but they made things simple and were not judgmental. I find it unbelievable, absolutely ridiculous that people could be trying to shut these places down. Shutting down PPs is telling women, “I don’t care about you.” It’s pushing women to go to crowded, understaffed health centers, or pushing them to not go to the doctors at all. I stand with Planned Parenthood, and I hope you stand with me.
