First abortion was in High School and the boy totally rejected me. I knew it was wrong. I didn't know the alternatives or the facts.   Pretty much the same story for the second [abortion].

[The abortions were] awful, insensitive -- especially the second one.  The abortionist was insensitive. 

Praying and counseling helped. The pain won’t go away even after 16 years. I know now what I destroyed and threw away.

It made me appreciate the two kids the Lord let me have.  I have a compassion for children and appreciate them for the gifts that they are.
