A friend of mine posted this article on her facebook today. I, for one, am very grateful that she did and that others are. Abortion is a very hot topic for some and very painful for others. The facts that are brought out in the above article are true about how many and how the abortions are being done. It is troubling the damage that is being done to this country, to babies and the people having them. We put our children on the alters to be sacrificed.
I am one of those that the topic is very painful. I was 19 years old living with my sister and supporting myself. My father had died and it put me in a huge tail spin. I so badly wanted to know that he loved me. I never got to know. I needed to be loved so terribly, that I tried to find it in my relationships with men. This lead me to finding I was pregnant. I was scared, desperate, lonely and I barely could take care of myself. In my desperation, I went to Planned Parenthood. I was told not to worry. They told me it wasn't a baby. I was told it wasn't formed yet and it was only a blob of tissue. I had the abortion and I can still hear that sucking machine. I had to go years later to the doctors to have pre-cancer cells removed from my cervices. In the procedure they used the same suction machine and I started crying floods of tears. The doctor was so concerned about why I was crying. He thought that he was causing me pain. He took me into his office afterwards to talk to me about it. I explained to him what I had done (abortion) and that the sound of that machine caused me a flashback that I did not realize was hiding in there. He teared up and said that he was glad that he asked me. His wife was pregnant and they didn't feel it was a good time for them to start a family. They were young career people and that came first. He told me he was going to have a long talk with her that night. Maybe....just maybe I helped save one life!!
My husband always tells us to not judge people to quickly because you don't know really where they are coming from or where they have been. I know this first hand. It has been my dirty little secret for years. My immediate family knows about it, but my siblings and friends, not so much. This may shock many of them and that's alright with me. Maybe.....just maybe I could save just one more!!
The problem with it is that we should not choose who lives and who dies. God gives life and let God take it back. Raising children can be hard, but for most, it is the most rewarding and life changing thing they could do. Children and elderly people should not be a problem but a great recourse for learning and growing. Caring for them both helps us get away from the me, me, me syndrome. Give back to our society one of it's greatest gifts.....babies!! Love an innocent and help an elderly person.
My thoughts from my heart,
Debra
