Why is abortion protected and fought over so much in the United States? Because it’s connected to women’s rights? Of course not. Because it’s a business. Not only is abortion a business, abortion is a business that rakes in millions of dollars, privately and otherwise, every year. Abortion is a federally protected, lobbying, growing business.

Being Post Abortive, I know the need to heal but I also know that I have a need to share this grief with others. As a nation we have been so desensitized by Roe v. Wade and the subsequent actions by those that devalue LIFE. Today, there are more of us than them and we are still ruled by THEM. My expression of post abortion grief is not acceptable; it’s thought of as unnecessary. It is a constitutional right to abort, but not a constitutional right to grieve the loss of an aborted child out loud, whether in the media, in church or on the street corner.
Like most Post Abortive women, I hid my grief and my failure from everyone. No woman wants to say out loud that their sin brought them to a point that they would kill their unborn child, as if to put a period on the end of a sentence. But it wasn’t that simple, like all prochoicers will have you believe – abortion was not an answer to any situation for any reason.
If you think about it clearly, abortion was brought about not just to exterminate what Sanger called ‘inferiors’, abortion was a wealthy woman’s way of hiding illicit affairs and a wealth man’s way of hiding their sin from their families. Abortion was a friend to the wealthy. The shame of hiding abortion is greater than the short fix of a bad situation. Not so long ago Planned Parenthood was yet again in the spotlight for having covered up an abortion for a minor girl whose adult boyfriend dropped her off and paid for the procedure. Covering up statutory rape is a crime in this country, but not the abortion. As time goes on, these post abortive lives are peppered with tiny bits of what our children would have been – a son or daughter, a friend, maybe someone that would have saved someone else’s life.
Your constitutional right to grieve the loss of your aborted child is not welcome by our society, but GOD wants to heal you and wants to take your grief away:
“The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers together the outcasts of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name. Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite. The LORD lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked down to the ground.” Psalm 147:2-6, NKJV
Unresolved grief is like a cancer. Grief is personal, grief can be indefinite. My constitutional right to grieve the loss of my aborted child is being taken away and replaced with liberal half-truths to blatant lies.
It’s time to grieve out loud. Abortion has a face – and that face is mine.

It is still so hard to believe that after many years of being a polite society here in these United States of America that Roe v. Wade will soon be in its 40th year. With abortion still legal, we as a nation and a society have become a dismal failure.
In this past 39th year of Roe, much has happened to further the lives of our unborn children but as we all know, it is not enough. We can march around world a bazillion times but until we are led by a prolife president that has the guts to say NO to abortion and to Roe, marching won’t matter. I know marching and other protests bring awareness to the problem, but even I’m sick of the word ‘awareness’: I WANT RESULTS.
We cannot change the problem until we can change the heart.
This past 39th year of Roe, I have been entwined with the Heartbeat Bill here in Ohio. I had to get out of the box and say out loud, in the House committee that was hearing testimony for the Bill, that I had an abortion and how it has affected my life. And as difficult as that was for me to testify before the House Committee, it was even harder to hear testimony supporting abortion. I can’t tell you how awful it is to listen to men and women say it’s a RIGHT to kill an unborn child. In my entire 50 years on this earth, I still am in awe of people – especially those that consider themselves ‘clergy’ – that fight the devil’s fight to kill our unborn. All it did was fuel the fire that God has put in my gut to stop this heinous bleating of ‘reproductive rights’.
The Heartbeat Bill brought me in front of the media, as well. It was something that was kind of cool and rather humbling. The local news and newspaper was interested in the Bill and that I testified on behalf of post abortive women, like me. Somehow that didn’t make sense to people but it certainly did to me. I know that God set me up to be the one to look to for the post abortive answer to the abortion question.
As this 39th year of Roe progressed, I was given the distinct honor of being asked to be the speaker at the closing rally for 40 Day for Life here in Dayton. It blessed me beyond measure. A great big thanks to everyone that came and supported me and the cause for LIFE.
In October, we went to Dayton Life Chain and stood with 2000 other people in silent prayer for one hour in reflection of the lives of the unborn that were aborted. I think we at least a 3 mile chain this last time! As drivers passed by, maybe at least one unborn child was saved. I really enjoy making the devil MAD.
As the Heartbeat Bill progressed, I was honored to testify again, this time for the Senate Committee. As I sat through the first day of testimony, I was grieved to see very young girls and boys in Planned Parenthood t-shirts. Obviously, these kids have no idea what they were doing. They giggled and made fun of Prolifers behind their backs with obscene gestures…..all bought and paid for by our tax money.
In this 39th year of Roe, women that I know felt comfortable enough to confide in me about their abortion experience. In a way it is nice to know that I am not alone, but I kind of wish I was. I hate that anyone ever had to go through the abortion procedure. The life of a post abortive woman is never a bed of roses – of that I am sure.
During this 39th year of Roe, I became a grandmother again. She was not planned or even considered until her mom realized she was pregnant. I am thankful that her mom chose LIFE. I’m thankful that my son is a good dad. And she is quite beautiful.
Part of being prolife is being a bit of an evangelist. This last year has given me further proof that GOD is in control and will prevail. He will change the hearts of women and men about LIFE; all I am is His servant…as we all should be. Without understanding that GOD is the Creator – the Author and Finisher, the Alpha and the Omega – then we stand a weak chance of changing the mind of people about LIFE. After all, if you don’t know where LIFE comes from, how can you respect it?
So as this 39th year of Roe v. Wade comes to a close, and the 40th year begins, we need to be much more attentive to the post abortive woman. There are AT LEAST 55+ million of us that have to deal with our failure every day. But our failure can be what changes the face of abortion and overturns Roe v. Wade. I am ever thankful to GOD that He has brought me this far in my Prolife LIFE, but there is far, far more to do.
I want to thank my husband for being the only one that stood by me at every event and encouraged my every written word; whether it was on this site or one of my many Letters to the Editor of our Ohio newspapers or writing testimony. I say I don’t know if I could have done this alone, but GOD is with me! And it took my husband to remind me of that every step of every day of my Prolife LIFE this 39th year of Roe v. Wade.
Let me leave this with you regarding your Post Abortive walk:
“For thus says the LORD: After seventy years are completed at Babylon, I will visit you and perform My good word toward you, and cause you to return to this place. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.” Jeremiah 29:10-14, NKJV
GOD knows you are or were in Babylon, a place where you are not celebrated, just tolerated. He wants you to know that all you have to do is ask Him and He will take you away from the captivity of being Post Abortive. GOD LOVES YOU! He knows your heart; He knows that you regret your ‘choice’. He knows you want to heal. So now it’s your turn to turn to HIM and be made whole again. Celebrate LIFE – celebrate Him.

That was a statement from a man that has been a born-again Christian and has gone to the same church for the last 30 years. To my ears it sounded like “NOW we’re prolife even though we’ve been Christians forever.” How did the issues of Life and abortion not cross your mind until now, I wanted to ask.
Dumbfounded, nearly speechless I listened to the rest of his story. There are two morals to this story so I’ll try not to confuse as I go.
He said that he became Prolife because of his daughter. She was ill with Cystic Fibrosis and became pregnant. Of course the doctor told her that she could die if she carries the baby to term. She went to her parents and told them that she was going to have her baby anyway. But her parents were scared to death that they would lose their daughter. 
Being in the middle of whose life was more important; they thought that abortion would be a way to keep their daughter from dying prematurely.
She had her baby and three years later she died. Her son is now being raised by his grandparents. Of course now they know what the right answer was but my issue is this: His church did NOT do its job in this situation. There would have never been a question on what to do if his church preached a LIFE message on a regular basis…And how sorry I am to report that most churches do not preach a LIFE message.
Denominational churches usually do not teach or preach on LIFE and abortion except some of the Catholic Church. I say some of them because I was once Catholic and I don’t recall hearing a LIFE message…but maybe that was just my church?
Non-denomination Christian churches are the only churches that will preach a LIFE message but sadly, hardly any do. Most churches find the subject of abortion to be too uncomfortable to preach about. But what most churches, large and small, do not know is that about 43% of ALL women 45 years old and under are Post Abortive. These women and MEN are sitting in their church and no one is ministering to them or preaching about LIFE and forgiveness.
Most of these non-denominational and denominational churches are way too busy being relevant with the world instead of what Christians are called to do, “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.” What is more ‘unclean’ that the slaughter of unborn children?
Here’s those morals I promised…
Moral #1: A Born-Again Christian had to wonder if abortion was the answer. It should have never been a question in the first place.
Moral #2: Most churches are not preaching and teaching a LIFE message.
It is my goal and purpose to take the message of LIFE to any church that will let me. Church, you need to hear the Message of LIFE.
Jesus said, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”

I have been in sales or in a sales related field nearly my entire taxpaying life. Every one of my customers wanted a guarantee, a warrantee and an extended warrantee that the product or service they bought will always be in working order and continue giving them that ‘new car’ feeling forever. People want promises that they’ve done the right thing; it’s part of the sales process. But even so, most people have buyer’s remorse after the sale. It’s that instant sinking feeling of buying something that you shouldn’t have and you can’t get out of it or get rid of it.
If you really didn’t need or want the product or service, then you shouldn’t have gone through with the sale, right? Most will buy because they were SOLD, with a certain bias to make the sale by the merchant. After all, that’s why a business is in business…to make a profit.
At least 83% of woman and girls that aborted wanted to keep their baby. That means that these women were pressured – SOLD – on getting an abortion either by their ‘partner’, parent, the media, and/or the abortion provider. At least 84% of women were not counseled before their abortion. If they were given a FULL DISCLOSURE of what an abortion is and how it will affect the rest of their life, how many more babies would have survived a fatal ‘choice’?
After abortion, there is instant remorse for having ended the life of a child. The baby cannot come back, the damage is done – but not just for the aborted baby, the mother is damaged forever and has to live with the remorse of a very bad choice.
At the very least, 65% of women/girls suffer multiple symptoms (promiscuity, drug abuse, alcoholism, psychological breakdown, eating disorders, etc) of Post Abortion Stress Syndrome. Suicide rates are 6 times higher among women who abort; teens are 6 times more likely to commit suicide if they’ve had an abortion in the last 6 months.
Buyer’s remorse of abortion? Nearly every time. Don’t let anyone SELL you on killing your unborn baby. Abby Johnson said she heard directly from Planned Parenthood to SELL more abortions - Planned Parenthood ‘needed’ the money.
Abortion is a business that makes a profit, not promises.

Prolife legislation on the table in Ohio is the Heartbeat Bill (HB 125). This bill is to outlaw abortion if the heartbeat of the unborn child can be detected. HB 125 has 50 sponsors in a 99 member house – a win-win I’d say.
Ultrasound is powerful. It shows the humanity of the unborn child. It makes known that this ‘blob of tissue’ is alive and literally kicking.
There were many people in the Ohio House that day that had never heard a fetal heartbeat nor have seen an actual, live ultrasound of an unborn child for the first time.
People’s lives change because of the advent of ultrasound, particularly for Dr. Bernard Nathanson. He was an OB/GYN that oversaw over 75K abortions in his career. He was one of the founding members of National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL). Dr. Nathanson worked to get abortion legalized in the ’70’s. But one day, he saw an ultrasound of a real-time abortion. He saw the mouth of the unborn child open in a silent scream. Dr. Nathanson not only became a prolifer, but he narrated and directed the movie ‘The Silent Scream’ with National Right to Life, wrote ‘Hand of God’, and filmed, narrated and directed ‘Eclipse of Reason’ depicting late-term abortion in detail.
Nathanson developed what he called the ‘vector theory of life’, which states that from the moment of conception, there exists ‘a self-directed force of life that, if not interrupted will lead to the birth of a human baby.’
Imagine my shock to learn that Ohio Right to Life is not supporting this bill: “The heartbeat bill will not save any babies’ lives because it will not be upheld in court,” said Michael Gonidakis, executive director of Ohio Right to Life. “The court has said there can be no bans on pre-viability abortions.”
The irresponsibility of that statement is detrimental to what we work for to put an end to abortion. Every itty bitty step, regardless of anything, is a step in the RIGHT direction in making the unborn child a living, developing human baby.
Ultrasound and heartbeat legislation is a significant step to show a pre-abortive mother exactly what she is considering killing – a living human being.

“If you look at the percentage of the races wiped out in the United States by abortion, we’ve lost about ten percent of the white race to abortion, about 16-17 percent of [the] Hispanic…Asian and Native American races to abortion, and 28 percent of the black race to abortion,” the HLI research director explains.
