In absence of Roe v. Wade, an abortion doctor dwells on all the patients she does not see
Last year, just a few months after the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade ended the constitutional right to abortion in the United States, Christine Henneberg published a memoir on two simultaneous life-defining experiences: carrying her first pregnancy during her first year performing abortions.
This was long after another transformative journey: traveling and living in a rural Indian village at the foothills of the Himalayas when Henneberg first wanted to be a writer. There, she encountered public health in ways that resonated with the legacy of the global health pioneer Paul Farmer and sparked her interest in women’s health.
