Government statistics released this week show that record numbers of women are having two or more abortions  -  and those who do so are not, as might be expected, young teenagers who don't know any better.

 

Angela is typical of them. As a cautionary tale about abortion, her story reveals a great deal about the emotional legacy of a termination  -  and especially of multiple abortions.

For while she continually insists she does not regret any of her actions, she goes on to describe in

agonising detail her lifelong battle with depression, how she once tried to take her own life and how she finds it a daily struggle to overcome a deep and abiding sense of shame.
