One woman tells the story of her abortion:
“While I was at the hospital there were three [women] in my room, two of whom had a few abortions… They were in their early 20s as I was, but their hearts were so hardened.
The nurse came and gave me a shot to relax me and then they came to roll me down the hall to the operating room. I remember saying, “Please stop. I’ve changed my mind; I want to keep my baby.”
Their reply was now, now, it will be over before you know it. The next thing I knew I was waking up very empty very lost. I would lie there remembering how my body felt full of child and how in one moment of time my body felt dead and empty… I see young girls doing what I did and it breaks my heart. If I could only talk with them for just a minute and share with them the hurt that I have suffered…”
