Well it has been about 7 months since my abortion. Thanks to those who responded. I took your advice and went for counselling. I met a wonderful woman who help me restore faith in myself and helped me regain my identity. We had a beautiful memorial service which helped in my healing process. However, things have still been difficult. Although I have come a long way since August 17, some days are hard. My due date is coming up and I really miss my baby. My marriage has been rough but the goods news is that we are receving counselling. What has complicated things is the vasectomy my husband had a week after my abortion. I think now that he really thought at the time that he was doing me a favour and I could hardly think clearly and anticipate what I would feel in the next hour let alone the next days or months. So now what is hard to deal with is that not only I do not have my baby anymore but I cannot have another baby again. I thank God everyday for my 2 boys because they mean the world to me but it is hard to look at them sometimes without seeing their siblings face. Our Pastor who is counselling us has assured me that we will get through this. He seems to think that another child is possible and I do believe him. To those of you hurting, I have felt your pain and I still feel pain somedays but it does get better. I have let God in, accepted His forgiveness and I know that God sees great things in me that I don't always see in myself. Hang in there and put yourself in God's hands, trust me, not only will you feel safe but you will actually begin to smile again.
