The legislation is now in a 30-day public comment period. 
All it takes is an email to consciencecomment@hhs.gov with "provider conscience regulation" as the subject line. 
Your comments will be published and viewable to the public at www.regulations.gov (under Comment or Submission), so you may want to strip out your email signature if it includes your phone number or other identifying info.

You don't have to use the highest-flying rhetoric or even be particularly well-spoken. Just tell them this legislation is damaging to women's health and to take it off the books.

My Message to HHS:
I am a young voting female of age 25, and a good citizen whose parents work in the medical field. This legislation is damaging to women's health and I would like to speak for hundreds of thousands of women who agree with me that it should be taken off the books immediately. Denying a much-needed and very common health service like this, making things complicated for women of varying ages, is truly disheartening. Full access to reproductive health services is a woman's fundamental right, not privilege.

one bloody day at a time. 
i cry every morning, usually just after the needle pokes through. 
i replace my bandage every day (somehow) and look in horror at the gaping wound left from surgery. 
the dosage was increased slightly as of yesterday, 
and then starting tomorrow, they're giving me some kind of "really expensive" antibiotic. 
the doctor says that this upcoming monday morning will be my last IV treatment. 
this whole ordeal has been physically, mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually exhausting.
 

Friday's surgery went well. I got my surgical report this morning when I arrived at the hospital for my daily IV infusion.

The surgeon made a 4cm incision and apparently the cavity was 'significantly deep', about 4cm as well. The doctor's notes indicate that I 'tolerated the procedure well'. I remember being taken to the OR and placed on the table, and the next thing I remember (thanks to anesthesia) was being taken to the recovery room. The wound must be dressed and redressed daily or as needed. 

My blood work continues to indicate that there is nothing out of the ordinary going on, with the exception of high white cell count due to the infection.

I stopped by Smile Herb Shoppe afterward to get some immune system boosting and detoxifying items, including powdered Triphala (which I will mix with honey to mask the horrible taste), Garlic & Parsley supplement, and Host Defense mushroom capsules. 

Eastern and Western medicine powers, unite!
