Subject: There is hope Author: Jen [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:35:55 01/08/05 Sat In reply to: Diane Cheryl 's message, "Re: It came back to haunt me" on 00:30:01 12/20/04 Mon Susan, You are not alone! There are so many women who feel the same way, but they all suffer in silence because they are afraid of telling others that they've had an abortion. I'm very pro-life, but I know that I have no right to judge you. I hate abortion because of what it does to women as well as the children. I believe that women deserve to be treated with respect and love whether they carry a wanted or unwanted (although there is no such thing, some one always wants to adopt a baby)child. Instead we walk into clinics with dollar signs hanging over our heads. Many post-abortive (women who've had abortions) then believe that they have to be pro-choice because they've had an abortion and that pro-lifers will condemn them. However, the pro-lifers are the ones who are trying to inform society that abortion hurts women along with kids, while the pro-choicers are trying to silence the facts. It's very complicated. But for the sake of your daughter... because your emotional state will rub off on her, look into attending a post-abortive retreat or counseling session. Many are free of charge. You could even call your local "Crisis Pregnancy Center". These people are not hateful...don't be afraid, they truely care! Ask them where to go for any post-abortive counseling. They will help you. I'm not sure if you believe in God, but if you do (I do), He loves you, no matter what you do. If you are sorry, He forgives you. Trust in Him and He will heal you. www.silentnomoreawareness.org Has a list of some awesome after-abortion resources and is for post-abortive women put together by post-abortive women. I'm actually putting together a Silent No More gathering at my University in Detroit, MI. Peace, Jen 313 928-4523 call me if you need to talk.
