To the Editor:
Re "Leeches, Lye and Spanish Fly" (Op-Ed, Jan. 22):
Kate Manning's graphic description of historical abortion methods almost obscures her critical point: Women will always find a way to end unwanted pregnancies.
Those of us who survived the brutalities of untrained abortionists in the desperate days before Roe v. Wade understand the plight of women today, mostly poor or powerless, whose constitutional rights are being denied through harsh state restrictions.
While I applaud every effort to reduce abortions, I am sad for these women. Abortion will always be a complex, difficult, personal matter fully understood only by the woman involved. When safe procedures are denied, dangerous and desperate measures will again cause damage and death.
