Dear Carla, my heart goes out to you for all you have gone through and the cruel injustice which you are having to suffer. I hope there will be enough pressure for those concerned to be ashamed and make amends. Stay strong. Warm wishes and thoughts Theresa

Theresa

I am horrified at what has been done to you. It is your body. It was your decision to make. I am shocked at how this has been handled and horrified that any judge could find against you in the 21st century. Solidarity and love to you and your family from Northern Ireland.

NIKKI

Dear Carla, my heart goes out to you, cannot imagine what you must be going through with this insanity. I’m sure all you want is for it to end, and I hope you will soon be vindicated and issued an apology for this complete travesty. With love, stay strong for you, your family and your fight for justice, Jill x

Jill

Dear Carla, thinking of you and hoping that an appeal against this ridiculous sentence will be forthcoming and successful. It is unbelievable that a law from 1861 still holds sway over women’s rights and control over their own bodies. I have only recently been made aware that such a law exists. I was under the impression that abortion was a right for all women in this country. Wishing you all the best.

Sue

Dearest Carla. My friends and I were absolutely horrified at what has happened to you. Making a choice about your own body should never be criminalised. I am beyond sorry about your experience but please know that there are thousands of us who are behind you, think what has been done to you is disgusting and send all our love and solidarity to you. Jo xxxxxxx

Jo

Everybody I speak to is completely appalled at your guilty verdict. It’s really hard to believe such injustice is still permissible. Please keep hoping that common sense and justice will prevail and that you will be released soon.

Rodney

Hang in there Carla. We’re fighting for you. Hopefully we’ll get you out and back with your family where you belong. Stay strong, we stand with you xx

Jenn

Hang on in there we’ve got your back xxx

Christine

Hello Carla Foster, I am writing to tell you that you are not alone. Just know that what you did was in both the best interests of yourself and your family -that alone tells me you are a great mother. No one should ever be imprisoned for accessing healthcare that is a human right. You are a strong person.

Rose

Hello Carla, I hope you’re bearing up. As a man I can’t feel what you’re feeling, but I know that you did what you had to, and not lightly. I’m certain that prison is absolutely the wrong place for you, and I’m glad that you have support from Level Up. I will add what support I can. Chin up and remain hopeful. You’re not alone. With love, Colin

Colin
