Each morning when I arrive at work, I turn on the computer and head for the coffee pot. Like most work places, we come in and tell everyone we see “Good Morning”. We have our little chit-chat, and go on about the day’s business.
A few days ago, a co-worker came into the kitchen, and I could tell something wasn’t quite right, so I asked her if she was ok. She said she felt like there was a knot in her stomach, and she was a little nauseous. Like other workplaces, we have our share of viral bugs going around, so I assumed one had gotten a hold of her. Then she shared the real cause of her illness with me.
Her son and his girlfriend had their first child in December, just a few months ago, and they just found out she’s pregnant again. My co-worker’s son told her that he wants his girlfriend to have an abortion. You know the rhetoric. “We can’t afford another baby”, “I’m not ready for another baby”, etc.
My co-worker said she just stared at her son. “Who are you?” It was like a complete stranger was standing in front of her. It was devastating to her to hear her own flesh and blood, so willing to kill his own flesh and blood. She said she didn’t raise him that way, and was totally floored to hear him say that, so matter-of-factly. I don’t know how the pregnant girlfriend feels about abortion. What I do know, is that abortion hurts more people than just the couple involved.
That’s where we are in the world today. The mentality has spread, that an innocent baby, or fetus, or even an embryo, is disposable. Pro-choice will tell you that it’s “just a clump of cells”. A first year medical student on Twitter said exactly that one day last week. Her answer to another Pro-abort that questioned why Pro-Life uses late-term abortion videos in their messages. I warn you, the video is extremely graphic.
Yes, they call us “Anti’s”, as in Anti-Choice. I really can’t argue with that.
The truth is, I am anti-abortion.
The truth is, an embryo is never just “a clump of cells”. It’s one of God’s miracles, the miracle of life.
The truth is, awareness is the key, and we need your help to spread the word.
UPDATE: I am PROUD to annouce that the baby is safe! The daddy got over his panic attack and came to his senses.. and btw.. the mom was very ANTI-abortion.. Grandma had a great big smile on her face today. I’m so happy for all of them!
UPDATE: It’s a BOY!!! The baby arrived safely yesterday morning 10/12/10 at 12:02 am. Grandma had a big smile on her face. She said her son was beaming, and taking tons of pictures. I can only hope to get one!
This is what happens when abortion is so readily available. Death clinics make it to easy to have an abortion women use abortion as a birth-control. Instead of having a fund-raiser for abortion they should have one for those that can’t afford to keep their baby! I’m convinced pro-aborts are blood thirsty and that is their final goal.
The mother and baby are not the only ones that is hurt by abortion! A whole generation.
Abortion has become an easy-out decision for them. They can go on with their life, school etc., never giving thought to the life they are taking, and how it affects everyone else.
Just a thought, if abortion don’t effect them now one day it might just smack them right up side their head when they least expect it and maybe then they will fall on their knees and cry out to Jesus. This is my prayer.
How sad for the grandparents. Abortion effects everyone. We are going to find out when we get to the other side how deeply this was so.
How the hell did women get so selfish? And men, with the easy-out of abortion. They have got pro-choice women right where they want them. They get the milk for free without buying the cow, then they just pay for the abortion and done!
What happened? Are they going to keep the baby?
I was just going to post an update. NO ABORTION!! Thank God!
So glad they are keeping their baby! GREAT news.
The baby is here! See update above
A year ago my son’s girlfriend said she was pregnant ,we bought gifts and celebrated.Then she decided against my son’s wishes she wanted an abortion.Then she waited another 2 months, told my son everything would work out.The next day she had an abortion.He was very upset.We were distraught and never thought we could be so upset.She started to contact him over and over telling him she didn’t mean to do it.He was not in an ok place and went back to her.We are unable to cope with the damage, it has ruined our lovely close family.It’s crushed and almost destroyed us.
Oh Sally, I’m so sorry. The girlfriend sounds like a typical pro-abort, not caring about other peoples feelings, and obviously not caring about what she did to the baby. Don’t let something she did ruin your relationship with your son, he needs you. I hope he comes to his senses and finds his way out of that relationship. Manipulative women are in a class all their own.. I’m not even sure how to classify them.
