abigail meyers was only seven years old when she was diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. luckily, the medication methotrexate was there to help. now in the aftermath of roe vs. wade, some doctors are denying patience access to this medication because it has the potential to harm a fetus.
in her piece “how a nationwide abortion ban would limit my access to life-changing arthritis medication,” meyers shares her concern for patients with conditions such as lupus and cancer who can no longer get the life-saving medication they need, as well as her future personal health worries.
meyers’ writing is as informative as it is eye-opening, so this is not a piece to be missed. go to
