Rape survivor: having my baby saved me

From Ashley, a girl who got pregnant as a result of rape, on her son:

“I swear if it wasn’t for Aiden, I wouldn’t be here today. He has impacted my life more than anyone could ever imagine at a time when I was falling apart. I was 13 years old, terrified, not knowing what the future would hold for me. Now I’m 16, completely confident in what my future will be as a mommy, a mentor, and a best friend. Now here he is, a week away from being 2 years old. So smart, so big, so full of life, and so happy. God blessed me with him and I wouldn’t want my life any other way. I love my son. Aiden saved me.”

Postabortion woman: it’s not worth the pain

The (now offline) website Abortiontv.com received this letter from a woman who had an abortion and regrets it:

I had and abortion with twins. I was getting married and I convinced myself that it wasn’t the right time. So did my fianc’. He made me do it. I wish I could have changed my mind and just kept them. I got laid off from work we were just starting out and I didn’t want children with someone who didn‘t want them. I’m so depressed and I have no one to talk to. He doesn’t want to talk about it with me he just rather forget it ever happen. But I think about it everyday.  I try not to because I have two kids that need me but didn’t they need me too. I feel so worthless inside. It’s like no one understands my pain. I don’t know what to do. I can‘at tell my mom it would kill her. Abortion is never the answer. Trust me you will feel like giving up, depressed and just confused. That’s how I feel confused. It’s been three months and I still don’t have a job. Everyday I look at him and I hate him sometimes.  How he can just walk around like nothing never happened. But who am I to hate him I might as well hate myself while I’m at it. I ask God to forgive me but it seems like I can’t forgive myself. U don’t want this monkey in your back for the rest of your life. Trust me. I need counseling because this cant be a quick fix like and abortion. So if you thinking about doing it think again and again and again. It’s not worth the pain.

Pro-choice people say that women do not regret their abortions, but there are thousand of stories like this one.

Abortion contributes to divorce of couple

From a postabortion father:

“While this [abortion] was not the only reason for our subsequent divorce, it was a major one. I blamed her for being so insistent on having the abortion. I felt that she had coerced me to into making a decision that was really against my inner feelings. I never forgave her while we were together, because I didn’t want to face the fact that I was a co-conspirator with her. I only knew that the child was gone, and could never be replaced.

We separated one year after the abortion and divorced a few months after that. I don’t know what side effects she might have as a result of the abortion because I haven’t seen her since the divorce. But I do know how it affected my life.”

Clinic worker: Having an unwanted child is worse than abortion

From one abortion clinic worker:

“I feel sad that it has to happen but it’s much sadder for a child to be brought up by carers who don’t really want it and can’t meet its needs. That’s more damaging for all concerned.”

Nurse: if you got rubella, we’d HAVE to abort

A pro-life woman tells her story:

“A number of years ago as I sat at my doctor’s office awaiting an inoculation against rubella, a nurse told me, “You’re smart to have this vaccine now. You know, if you happen to be exposed to rubella while you’re pregnant, we’d have to perform an abortion.”

This casual remark from a medical professional captures the predominant attitudes toward our handicapped sons, daughters and patients in tidy summation.

To the problem of fetal abnormalities, abortion has become a quick and easy- even expected – remedy.”

Clinic worker: abortion workers still get pregnant

From an abortion clinic worker:

Hell, even among abortion counselors who deal with the concrete evidence of this fact every day, who have good information and all kinds of contraceptive supplies at their fingertips, there are still no shortage of crossed-fingers pregnancy tests and hush-hush abortions. I’ve seen it happen. And I’ve only been working in this field a few months!

Clinic worker feels “sorrow” at abortions

Sallie Tisdale, abortion clinic nurse:

“How can you stand it? Even the clients ask. They see the machine, the strange instruments, the blood, and the final stroke that wipes away the promise of pregnancy. Sometimes I see that too. I watch a woman’s swollen abdomen sink to softness in a few stuttering moments and my own belly flip-flops with sorrow.”

After seeing aftermath of abortion, she chose life

From the Priests for Life website, which has graphic pictures of aborted babies:

11 weeks
11 weeks

“I am 11 wks pregnant and considered having an abortion. I’ve always been very religious but this was a consideration of mine until now. I can be told how and what the procedure does but never did I really know what it looked like and the aftermath of the child until now. It was very disturbing to see but unfortunately true. I am ashamed to have always been pro-life and considered doing this. I ask GOD to forgive me personally but will say that there was a reason I found this website and it literally changed my heart as well as my mind. I would like to advise to young girls, women that this is not the only option. Every child deserves to be born and live. They are human just like us. We choose as human beings to make love, but God chooses when we create life.”

Abortionist sends 10 year old child home to be raped

Dr. Benjamin Graber, abortionist, was cited for failing to notify authorities that a 10-year-old girl on whom he performed an abortion may have been sexually abused. It could have prevented two years more years of sexual abuse for the child if he had reported the 10-year-old`s case.

Dr. Benjamin Graber said:

“It was not an obvious case of child abuse. She came in with her mother. It was legal. It was out front. There were no signs of abuse.“
