Answer
are you ok? Haven't heard anything from you.

Hi.. I emailed you back on Nov. 25 and haven't heard back from you. Please let me know if you received the following email.

Hello Grid,
Please consult your physician as I'm not a medical doctor. But I do think this is very abnormal. I don't mean to scare you but did they give you any instructions after the abortion?
Your abortion provider might be someone you should contact.
Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know what happens. I'm concerned. Hope to hear from you.
