I had four abortions by the age of 17

Wow that is incredibly sad. Four abortions before even turning 17. Do these children not realize that abortion is murder?

Sadly no. That is the state of the family if not in this world at least this country of ours.

With family structure and values at an all time low. there is hardly any support for these women in most cases.

Furthermore when a woman feels scared, alone, in poverty, desperate the people such as the one’s in Planned Parenthood and secular media, get a firm grasp on these poor souls with their propaganda that its not a big deal and that it is “just a glob of cells”. And other propaganda.

Killing a baby because of being scared, poor and desperate is never a good excuse however with the media bombardment that is and that people like Planned Parenthood are there for them in need. Guess who wins? Sad but true. We just need to keep praying and continue to expose the truth.

I like Fr. Pavone of Priest for Life idea that we should show the pictures and show the victims of abortion. Such good case of abortion is not safe and good alternative is Ms. Lopez who died a couple years ago from a “safe” abortion. The 7 girls who have died since the abortion pill was legalized. Now we will see how many girls will become ill or die for the new morning after pill that our government (including our President) say is such a good idea for young girls today.

I had two and it took ten years for me to come to grips with what I had done. I hated myself the second I did the first and wanted to die right after the second. Don’t ask what kept me from committing suicide because I don’t know.

Thank you for your honest and forthright testimony! Such a strong witness to the fact that NOTHING can separate us from the love of Jesus Christ. It is really true that the truth will set us free, being open and honest about our misdeeds and still finding the love of Jesus, letting us all know, is such a powerful tool for evangelization.

May God bless you and JamesN, and may He also show His love and mercy to your husband and mother.

One thing that really helped me come to be authentically pro-life is knowing how truly harmful abortion is to the mother, let alone the rest of society. When I realized how I had been “duped” by the culture of death and secular society, I was angry, then called to action. I suspect your mother and husband feel there really are no other choices, and also no ill-effects of abortion to women. :twocents:

Thanks tamccrackine for your witness for life.

One of my greatest fears as a witness outside an abortion mill was that I would say something that would hurt more and may cause more harm as I knew how destructive this was to people. We need to keep praying for mothers and fathers and their families.

I remember one security guard that had had an abortion and he would say to me “Can you feel the evil?” I could sense the evil but not feel it as profoundly as he could.
