Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

Here in NY we are fighting an extreme pro abortion bill introduced by Governor Spitzer
the  Reproductive Health and Privacy Protection Act.
Here is a video put out by the NYS Catholic Conference

I wrote to Spitzer in May of 2007 ..here is the letter he never bothered to answer…another proof of his pro abortion agenda

Re: Abortion
Legislation

Dear
GovernorSpitzer:

You have recently
proposed legislation in response to the banning of partial birth abortions.
This legislation coincides with the extreme pro abortion agenda purporting to
“guarantee a women’s right to make decisions related to her personal
reproductive health”.

In your press
release relating to the legislation, members of Planned Parenthood, The Center
for Reproductive Rights, NARAL Pro-Choice New York and other pro abortion
organizations are quoted, praising you for your  attempt. One voice that continues to be
ignored are those of women who are suffering as a result of a past abortion.

Pro abortion groups
continue to deny post abortion trauma, and although they claim to speak for all
women, they go out of their way to silence those not in agreement with their
views. In addition to their attempts at silencing these women, and denying
their experiences, they do all within their power to block legislation that
would reduce abortion and give women the entire truth about its risks, both
psychologically and physically.

These people, in
order to keep all abortion legal at any time for any reason, at the expense of
the health of countless women, even object to the banning of partial birth
abortion which has been proven to have no medical reason to be preformed, even
for the health of the mother. In the recent Supreme Court decision thousands of
affidavits were submitted attesting to abortions harm by women who have
experienced them. These pro abortion extremists do not want you to hear their
voices.

The Gonzalez v
Carhart decision banning Partial Birth Abortion gives credence to these women
when it states "The State has an interest in ensuring so grave a choice is
well informed. It is self-evident that a mother who comes to regret her choice
to abort must struggle with grief more anguished and sorrow more profound when
she learns, only after the event, what she once did not know:
that she allowed a doctor to pierce the skull and vacuum the fast-developing
brain of her unborn child, a child assuming the human form."

I invite you, Governor
Spitzer, if you are truly concerned about the health of all women, to
introduce legislation that would ensure women know all facts and risks of
abortion. I invite you to have some of us who have experienced the devastation
it has caused in our lives into his office to discuss our concerns. I challenge
you to introduce a Women’s Right To Know bill which may save countless numbers
of women from becoming sterile, receiving cervical injuries, perforated
uteruses, and developing endometriosis from abortion or suffering psychological
consequences.

Enough is
enough…it is time to listen to the truth, which is finally beginning to come
forward, as evidenced by the banning of partial birth abortion and by the
voices of those who have been there.
