Connie

Trying to keep up a “goody two-shoes” image, I did not want my parents to find out that I was having sex outside of marriage and I decided to have an abortion to hide my behavior. My boyfriend came up with some of the money for an abortion and then I lied to my best friend for the rest of the money. Connie's testimony from the 2023 March for Life in Washington D.C.

I was a child of 15 when I had my abortion. I was told, "You are a child yourself, how are you going to take care of a baby?" I was young and not strong enough to fight for me and my baby. So I went along with the abortion, although I wanted to keep him. Sharon's testimony from the 2023 March for Life in Washington, D.C.

la solución fue al día siguiente ponerme en mis manos unas pastillas abortivas y darme las instrucciones específicas de lo que yo tenía que hacer. No lo cuestioné, ¿si no tenía su apoyo ni él lo quería entonces cuál sería la opción? Karina's testimony from the 2023 March for Life in Washington, D.C.

Jon and I ended up getting married after the abortion, but we didn’t talk it about for years. It was something that was too hard to bring up, and we never knew how to share our feelings of regret with each other. Angry and unable to forgive ourselves, we caused our children to suffer.

Linda

I looked below the window, and my 14-year-old son sat in a chair. I thought he is just a baby. I was just a baby. The self-loathing left me. My mourning was complete. I was fourteen when I made the worst mistake of my life. Now 50 years later, it still breaks my heart. That is why I must speak, I must warn, I can be silent no more.

Carissa
NY, United States
|
|
After the abortion, I woke up and I grabbed my stomach and there was another somebody who was there. “It’s gone, it’s gone,” I choked out. The tears started. She said, “don’t do this to yourself,” and put her hands on my shoulder. I got up quickly, they gave me some water or juice or something and they immediately gave me my clothes which is weird with all the pain.

Denise
FL, United States

I had changed from the happy-go-lucky college student to wanting no longer to live. I found no one to talk to. I called the father of the baby and we got back together. My grief made him and my friends uncomfortable. They all wanted to forget it happened. So I stuffed all my grief for the next 30 years.

Andrea
VA, United States
|
|
I tried to resume my life. But thoughts of that day kept haunting me. The sounds of the suction, the coldness of the room, the other women moaning. I became depressed and alcohol and drugs became my friend. I developed a promiscuous lifestyle to feel loved again and during this horrific cycle of drinking drugs and sexual sin I would have 2 more abortions.

Sue

As time went on after the first abortion, effects manifested themselves over the years without me realizing the cause. I was very depressed. I had low self-esteem. I became an emotional eater and gained a lot of weight. I became very promiscuous. After the second one, I thought I knew what to expect but the effects were more intense.

My life spiraled. The shame and guilt I have carried over the last 27 years was unbearable, the hidden grief, the tears, the emptiness of missing my child.. If it had not been for Jesus, I would not have made it through. I got pregnant 7 years later and became a Licensed Therapist to help other hurting people!

But, it wasn't God punishing me. It was my free will, God had given me. I didn't know the things I did, would have some kind of impact in my life. Without realizing it at the time. Abortion changes a woman forever.

I was a very liberal college student in the late 70s. I believed in "women's liberation" from a teen. That meant not being encumbered by children until successful; having an important career; not needing our man.
