Dear Jane,

I am sorry for your loss and for what you are going through. Before you talk to your mom, you should go into some post-abortion counseling and work to understand what you are really feeling. Also, having the right "tools" to speak with her about it all would be an important part of talking to her openly & honestly.

Many Pregnancy Centers offer FREE post abortion counseling. You can look one up near you at this site:

This is also another good page of resources you can take your time to look at:

I'm so glad you know that God forgives you, He will also forgive the other behvior since that time. We do fight our battles on this earth - but keep up the good fight Jane.

Hugs,
Kris

Jane,
I am not sure what to tell you about telling your mom. I am just replying to let you know that you are not alone. I am 25, I have still never told a soul about my abortion. I want to tell my mom some day as well, but I am scared to because I am also considered her smart and perfect daughter and I don't want to lose that. If I tell you to tell your mother then I would be a hipocrite so I won't tell you that, but just know, that your mother will love you through everything, and if you do choose to tell her, you and she will get through it together, and if you choose to never tell her, I understand that as well.
Good Luck,
Christina
