TO ALL ENLISTED : "BUMMER" SHORT STORY : VISITING THE ABORTION DOCTOR : DIALOGUE PRACTICE :
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/12/us/virginia-buckingham-boston-911.html
"OKAY, I SCHEDULED A PRENATAL APPOINTMENT WITH MY DOCTOR, FOR YOU, SWEETIE."
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/11/opinion/china-america-foreign-policy.html
AN HOUR AGO, I DRIFTED ASLEEP, SNUGGLED UP, WITH MY HUSBAND, WHO HAD JUST LEAPT BACK INTO MY BED, EXCITEDLY TELLING ME THAT THE FOUR PREGNANCY TESTS RESULTS, EACH FROM FOUR DIFFERENT BRANDS, WERE ALL POSITIVE.
https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline
"IT'S NOT NECESSARY, AS I HAVE TO SEE MY OWN DOCTOR, TO MAKE SURE I SHOULDN'T HAVE AN ABORTION," I SHOOK MY HEAD, AS I WARNED HIM.
"NOOOO!!! I WILL NOT BE EXCLUDED, FROM YOUR PRENATAL MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS!!!"
"WE'RE ONLY TOGETHER, FOR THE BOOTY CALL SEX, AND NOTHING ELSE!!!" I SHOUTED BACK AT HIM.
"I ONLY AGREED TO MARRIAGE, FOR THE SEX, ONLY, SO, YOU'RE NOT EVEN MY REAL HUSBAND!!!"
WE HAD BEEN MARRIED FOR ONLY ONE YEAR, BUT HE THOUGHT HE COULD START MAKING UNREASONABLE DEMANDS, LIKE HAVING ONE BEDROOM, NOT TWO BEDROOMS.
"I WON'T HAVE THE BABY, UNLESS WE AGREE WITH TWO BEDROOMS, EXCEPT FOR OUR SCHEDULED SEX NIGHTS."

I POINTED AT THE RHYTHM METHOD CALENDAR, WITH A DRY ERASE QUESTION MARK, SCRAWLED BY HIM, ON THE DAYS THAT HE PREFERRED SEX, WHICH WAS ON EVERY DAY OF MY OVULATION WEEK, AND THE LITTLE "YES" MAGNETS, I STUCK ON ONE-QUARTER OF HIS REQUESTED DAYS.

DRAPED UNDER OUR SEX CALENDAR WERE MY VARIOUS LINGERIE OUTFITS, AND SEX TOYS.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4976292/
THIS HAD BEEN A REAL BUMMER OF A MORNING.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=63mCck-HPJw
HE STOPPED STARING AT THE FOUR PREGNANCY TESTS, THAT READ POSITIVE.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AXChxnH1Rio
THEN, HE MADE A SERIES OF CALLS, TO HIS PARENTS, AND SIBLINGS, TO LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THE PREGNANCY, SENDING THEM HIS VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE PREGNANCY TESTS.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RilGL0lfjp8
I OPENED UP MY JEWISH, MUSICAL JEWELRY BOX, FROM OUR BEDSIDE NIGHTSTAND, AND TOOK OUT A FEW MARIJUANA JOINTS, FROM IT, TO SMOKE, IN THE SUN ROOM, WITH THE FRENCH DOORS OPENED, IN MY FAVORITE ROCKING CHAIR, WEARING A BRIGHT RED, SILK ROBE, AND MATCHING SLIPPERS.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5NdT0zZ72ic
I HAD HIS BUSINESS TIE TURNED INTO A MAKESHIFT HEADBAND, TO HOLD MY HAIR BACK, OFF MY FACE.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M_ggp9AhHlg
HE HAD GOTTEN WAY TOO ANNOYING, I THOUGHT, WITH HIS CONSTANT DEMANDS FOR TOGETHERNESS TIME.
https://www.lamag.com/citythinkblog/crime-in-los-angeles/
"CLINGY, CLINGY, CLING!!!" I EXCLAIMED.
https://abc7.com/amp/los-angeles-shootings-crime-la-lapd/10822184/
I STUCK MY MIDDLE FINGER UP, AT A NOSY NEIGHBOR-PEEPING TOM, PEERING INTO OUR WINDOWS, AND OPENED, FRENCH DOOR.

I STARTED WORKING ON THE SEX CALENDAR, CHECKING WITH MY FRIENDS' SCHEDULED TIMES, ON A SEPARATE, SOCIAL CALENDAR, TO MEET AT THE NEARBY DOG PARK, FOR OUR USUAL DOG WALKS, AND DOG PLAYDATES.
I CALLED ONE OF MY GAY, TRANSGENDERED DADS, TO LET HIM KNOW, THAT I NEEDED AN ABORTION, PROBABLY, AS THE PANDEMIC WAS GETTING MUCH WORSE, SO, I COULDN'T AFFORD TO GET PREGNANT, AND CONTINUE WORKING AT HIS PHO RESTAURANTS.

************************
THE CLINIC WAS A WINE BAR, FRENCH BISTRO, DOWNSTAIRS.
UPSTAIRS, I WALKED INTO A WAITING ROOM, THAT HAD JAPANESE BOOTHS, JUST LIKE FOR PRIVATE, JAPANESE DINING, AT RESTAURANTS.
https://amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/619569/
THERE, IN MY PRIVATE BISTRO BOOTH-WAITING ROOM, I HAD JAPANESE TEA, BRUNCH, AND FILLED OUT A DIGITAL FORM, JUST LIKE THE BRUNCH ORDERING, ELECTRONIC MENU.
I CLICKED "YES," FOR THE PREGNANCY LAB TESTS, REQUESTED A VIETNAMESE-ENGLISH LANGUAGE DOCTOR, AND TYPED INTO THEIR "ADDITIONAL COMMENTS," FIELD THAT, "I NEED AN ABORTION-FRIENDLY, OB/GYN DOCTOR."
https://www.mauimagazine.net/seafood-pho-recipe/
I SIPPED AT A DECAFFEINATED, ORGANIC GREEN-GINGER TEA, IN HOPES IT WOULD CALM MY STOMACH FROM THE MORNING SICKNESS.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ftsQYS1fkOs
AS MY BRUNCH WAS SERVED, A NURSE PRACTITIONER-MIDWIFE CAME IN, TO HAND ME THE ABORTION PILLS, TO TAKE, WITH MY BRUNCH, AND INSTRUCTED ME TO SPEND THE REST OF THAT DAY, AND NEXT MONTH THERE, A TOTAL OF 32 DAYS, UNTIL THE ABORTION SEEMED EFFECTIVE, AND SAFELY COMPLETED.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy_HzvVbfWQ
"I DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE BLOOD TEST RESULTS?" I ASKED.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2gbsUv-eP5Y
"NO," SHE SHOOK HER HEAD, AS THE URINE TESTS WERE RAPIDLY AVAILABLE, AND ACCURATE.
https://thediplomat.com/2019/05/vietnam-and-the-mekongs-synthetic-drug-epidemic/
I THANKED HER AND SPENT THIRTY-TWO DAYS LIVING IN THE JAPANESE TEA HOUSE-ABORTION CLINIC.
https://www.history.com/.amp/news/drug-use-in-vietnam
THE FRENCH BISTRO, AND WINE BAR WAS DECENT.
https://jamesclear.com/heroin-habits
I SPOKE FRENCH WITH THE STAFF, AND HAD A FEW JOINTS, IN THE BACK PATIO GARDEN, WHERE THEY HAD A EXTENSIVE BOTANICAL GARDENS, DEVOTED ENTIRELY TO USDA ORGANIC, AFLATOXIN-FREE, 5% THC, MEDICAL MARIJUANA.
https://www.purerecoveryca.com/addiction-treatment-modalities-and-therapies/
AFTER MY ZULRESSO-PRENATAL MULTIVITAMIN-CORRECTIVE ELECTROLYTE IV TREATMENT WAS COMPLETED, I HAD SCRIPTS TO FILL FOR LUVOX, ABILIFY MAINTAINA, NIRAVAM, BIRTH CONTROL ANNOVERA RING, AND LEXAPRO.
https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/story/1902613/sam-choys-kitchen-recipe-pickled-mango/
THEN, I BOUGHT A TWO YEAR SUPPLY OF MARIJUANA PRENATAL MULTIVITAMINS, AS I LEFT, FROM THEIR WICCAN APOTHECARY, COMPOUNDING PHARMACIST, WITH A NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR, SO I COULD START TRYING TO CONCEIVE A HEALTHIER BABY, ONE THAT WOULD BE CONCEIVED, AFTER MY FINAL JAB OF MODERNA VACCINATION, AGAINST COVID-19 WAS OVER, AND I FELT STRONG ENOUGH WITHOUT THE DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, PANIC DISORDER WITH AGORAPHOBIA, AND COMPLEX PTSD DRUG TREATMENTS.
https://www.hawaii-aloha.com/blog/2011/11/05/the-sweet-and-oh-so-sour-story-of-li-hing-mui/
MY COVID-19 TEST WAS NEGATIVE, BUT, DUE TO THE PRESYMPTOMATIC WINDOW PERIOD, OTHER HEALTH CONDITIONS, I HAD TO GET THE ABORTION, MY NURSE MIDWIFE ADVISED ME.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q_wbEtNQLFw
"AFTER ALL, YOU SHOULD BE ON THE PRENATAL MULTIVITAMINS, AT LEAST ONE MONTH BEFORE YOU CONCEIVE," SHE INFORMED ME.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=H3qvGfYYmaU
SHE HELPED ME ENROLL INTO THEIR FREE "PRECONCEPTIONS PROGRAM," AT THE WICCAN APOTHECARY SHOP, NATUROPATHIC CLINIC, WITH A MEDICAL MARIJUANA CLINIC.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MiODKGSxBI4
THERE, THEY SPECIALIZED IN THE ALCOHOL, OPIOID ADDICTION TREATMENTS, THAT I NEEDED, IN ADDITION TO THE ABORTION.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=y31rUItaAnI
I HAD TO RETURN TO LIVE THERE, 32 DAYS, WITH ONE WEEK, AT HOME, IN BETWEEN MY DRUG, ALCOHOL REHAB STAY, FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS.
I CALLED MY HEALTH INSURANCE PROVIDER, AND THEY COVERED IT, COMPLETELY, UNDER THEIR FREE, DISCREET, CONFIDENTIAL, PRO-CHOICE, "PRECONCEPTIONS PROGRAM."
