“I am post-abortive 32 years ago and it has a devastating aftermath that only God can heal,” Sweet said. 

She said in 1997 her mother had a near death experience, having been given the wrong medication and suffering from liver failure. “As she lay in the hospital almost dying, she said the words that forever changed my life. She held up her rosary and united her sufferings with Christ. That moment hit me like a ton of bricks as I looked up and pleaded with our Lord for her life,” Sweet said. 

“Not only didn’t she die, but with the doctor’s permission, I took her to Fatima and Lourdes, and she was miraculously healed from a liver transplant. 

“I began to pray my rosary daily, went to confession and the healing process began. In 2003 while working at Holy Infancy Gift Shop, a young lady entering the store shared with me she was contemplating an abortion. I felt an urgency to share my story with her in hopes to save her from a lifetime of pain. She thanked me and left undecided.”
