>It's not nice. Not nice at all.<
Your story could save other girls or women from having an abortion. Thank you for having the courage to post it here.
I am very sorry for the loss of your baby, your first child.
Don't waste your time sending this in to MS. magazine. It will go directly into the round file.
You'll see your first child someday, in Heaven. He won't be nearly as hard on you as you are on yourself.
You will be able to wisely guide your daughter on life's serious choices. She will make better decisions.
God bless you all.
bump for later
I am an unabashed pro-lifer. But I'd welcome you and your family as neighbors and friends any ol' time.
I hope you don't learn the hard way that although you think these people are your friends, when it comes to abortion, all bets are off. I shared my abortion story, which wasn't quite like yours, about four years ago. TO THIS DAY, people here will throw it in my face (BABY KILLER) when it suits them. So I understand your need and your honesty...but be prepared for the worst.
Is there a reason you're doing the best to hijack this thread?? Shoo!
Post 24 - ditto for you.
Is it possible they do that because you are constantly posting rancid anti-life thoughts? Just maybe . . . ?
So then, you're pro-life now?
Which does not matter, frankly, because Gregory and I are both murderers and it isn't easy admitting you're a murderer.

Well, I'm taking a chance here too, although I've posted it on other message boards. I also had an abortion and it affected me negatively for a long time. They try to tell you it doesn't, but I would bet that for a good majority it does. I also feel that I am a murder, but I will say that I've been forgiven by God and only thru him was I able to forgive myself.
I just had to tell you that you aren't alone...there are plenty of others out here.
Thanks for sharing!
If I were pro-life now, would that make what I did ok to you?
God bless you!
I have thought for years that abortion-on-demand would come to an end shortly after its adult victims begin to speak out. There must be millions of women who now see abortion as you do but have not yet found the courage you have shown in telling your story.
I can't help but think of the saying, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." The day will come when this nation finds out that all the fury of Hell itself is nothing compared to the fury of a generation of women who realize the serpentine lie they were fed ended in the violation of their femininity, their womanhood and the death of their children. Abortion-on-demand will have just recently been outlawed.
Tell it!

This column totally reaffirms my belief in the redemptive healing power of God.
I just asked a question - you're the one that posted - but I have a feeling like most of your postings it's just to bring the discussion back around to your favorite topic. YOU -
What a ridiculous thing to say...since you know me so well then you should know my thoughts on abortion...I've never wavered...they should be very, very difficult to get, parental notification a must, no government funding...but NOT illegal.
So you're not pro-life, you're pro-choice. Just come out and say it...
I AM PRO-CHOICE.
Hildy, I don't know your story, however, I was in a position at one time in my life to consider an abortion. I did not choose that route, but at my age and in my situation had I not had a supportive guy in my life, I may well have chosen to do it because I was squishy on whether it was right or wrong at the time.
God can forgive anything if you ask and if you believe in his Son (for all I know you already have). We have all sinned, it's what humans do. God bless those who have transgressed but are willing to stand up and tell their stories to help others avoid the same mistakes. It takes courage and a certain amount of selflessness.

Great, now go make another thread all about you!
I did it, I have no regrets and I'm not going to lie about it to make myself feel any other way than I do or so others don't call me names. And there are plenty of women who feel exactly the way I do.
I say this because there's always two sides to a story. I believe the poster and her heartfelt story. But that's HER story and everyone's story is different.
