Woman "Demystifies" Abortion Live on Twitter, YouTube
Angie Jackson, 27, wanted to "demystify" abortion, and so shared it on Twitter, YouTube and her personal blog.
"I'm doing this so other women know, 'Hey, it's not nearly as terrifying as I had myself worked up thinking it was.' It's just not that bad," the New York Daily News quoted Jackson as saying on her YouTube video.
The whole incident had started on February 13, when she discovered that her IUD, a contraceptive device placed in the uterus, failed.
According to ABCNews.com, Jackson, who has a four-year-old son with special needs, decided to terminate the pregnancy.
"I had made a decision when my son was born to try to not get pregnant again, and if that failed I'd planned that I would get an abortion if I needed one," she revealed.
She went to her local Planned Parenthood in Tampa, Fla., to get RU-486, commonly known as the abortion pill.
She started chronicling the experience on Twitter under the username "antitheistangie."
"Cramps are getting a bit more persistent," Jackson typed.
