It was devastating and awful

How did you come to have the abortion(s) and who was involved?

I was separated and had a small child about 6 or 7 mos. And another child already, not living with me.

How would you describe your abortion(s)?

That is hard to do. It was devastating and awful. I felt heavy and crushed. (I did allow my baby to be killed).

How did your abortion(s) affect you and others?

I'm not sure about others --- not too many knew. It affected me bad for a long time.

Please describe what you have done to deal with your abortion(s), and did it help?

I have prayed to God to help me, heal me and forgive me. He has! I've also read a book called "Ministering to Abortion's Aftermath" (by Bill & Sue Banks). I'm going through a counseling program & workbook - a post-abortion Bible study. I have talked to some of my Christian friends. All of these have helped.

How do you think your abortion(s) changed your life?

I carried a spirit of murder for a long time. I am missing a life with one of my children. I should have experienced that child's life as well as the others. I interfered with God's plan for that child!
