Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

The first abortion – David McDonald

I never understood that sex was something ordained by God as sacred, and as a
gift to humans for bonding and for making life. I thought sex was something you
did for fun and as an expression of your feelings if you liked someone and were
attracted to them. The idea of lifelong commitment was outside my scope of
understanding. I was going out with a girl who I had met when I was playing
music
in Central Park. After an unexpected pregnancy, I "helped" her arrange an
abortion. The abortion really affected her, but we assured ourselves that a baby
would not be a good thing at that time because she was a student at the American Music & Dramatic Academy (AMDA) and I was climbing the
entertainment ladder. We were both on a mad dash for
success. But it really affected her. She has always carried that loss
with her although today she is married and has a child with a famous person who is in the Rock
& Roll Hall of Fame, who everyone reading
this story would know. I dulled the pain with my ambition.
