Amidst what has been a seemingly endless stream of depressing reads on this issue, this piece seems to offer some historical perspective for reasons to have hope about where we go from here. It going to be a big change for the GOP to not be able to campaign overturning Roe anymore.
Yes campaigning for overturning Roe v Wade is a big talking point and it's something my father focused his career on, but at the same time, these people need reassurances that Roe v Wade doesn't get reinstated again. You can apply changes but these changes need to be sustained and only a strong GOP senate ensures that stability.
 
The lack of preparation for this ruling by the admin, and any concrete steps to address it, is appalling.
I agree. They’ve know for two full months that this was coming, and what they had to offer was a speech from Biden condemning the ruling, Nancy Pelosi reading a poem, sending out a bunch of fundraising emails, and telling everyone to “vote harder”.

We’re up against an opponent who just successfully executed a five decades long strategy of gerrymandering control of state houses and Federal congressional seats, fundamentally breaking the Senate, stealing Supreme Court nominations and appointing three Christofascist zealots to the court, all to accomplish an end goal that 60-70% of the country opposed. I think it might be time to consider that this isn’t a problem we can solve by simply getting a few more people to the polls.
 
What about the mother? Why should she be forced to spend her entire life with a living reminder of her trauma?

You're rather selective about which parts of life are precious.
There are options available. There's the option to give up the child for adoption. There can also be counselling for the mother and behavior therapy.
