Hi, Luka,

Sorry I didn't come back and answer you sooner. I don't mind you knowing the details of my story. You can find them here:

My story

And you can also read another story on my web site, by a woman who was actually physically forced to submit to an abortion:

Liferose

I read the transcript from the discussion. That's really sick! Saying that because your baby is going to die, you have to kill her! The one really beautiful thing about my story is that my conscience is clear. I protected my baby until it was her time to go Home. I didn't take away from her the little life she had.

My sister had a baby when she was in her late 30's. The doctor asked her if she wanted amniocentesis to see if the baby had any abnormalities. She said, No, I wouldn't have an abortion anyway. So when he was born, they found that he has Down Syndrome. I remember her calling me and telling me she was going to do her best to help him be the best he can possibly be. It turned out that he was more advanced in language than an exceptionally gifted "normal" child. His language development was that of a five year old when he was only 3 1/2. He is now in his teens. He has been an incredible blessing! At times I'm even jealous she got him instead of me! He brought healing to the family as well. I am outraged that 95% of the babies who have Down Syndrome are now being killed by abortion. These parents have no idea what a wonderful experience they are missing. And it makes it that much harder for the ones who are born, because if we provided the right environment, they would develop and learn very well, but now that it is so easy to get rid of them, there is no motivation to provide a good environment for them.

I hope and pray that you will heal from your experiences. I know healing is possible. I agree; the women I have known who have healed are the ones who have accepted that Jesus died for them, so they could be reconciled to God.

You are so precious, and I am so grateful you are here!

Hugs,
Pat
