Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

"I know I shouldn’t care, but I’ve had more feelings for this one chick
than I have had for anyone else in my life. I have felt closer to her,
and done more for her than I have anyone and it just kills me how she
has done me wrong so many times over. As a friend, and when we were
dating. She stops talking to me and hanging out with me, my best
friend, every time she starts dating. I just got on my delinquent
myspace for some stupid reason and see she’s dating again. Just a few
weeks after her abortion, she’s “in love” with some guy “always and
forever.”

So goes a post on this blog http://frank247.wordpress.com/2009/12/08/i-feel-sick/ by Frank, who obviously can see that just having an abortion and then going out and falling in love "always and forever" cannot be a healthy thing.

The truth is, many girls go out and become promiscuous or look to fill the void from abortion (and I would bet this is not her first), by "falling in love" or doing anything else that will take them away from the pain and the truth of what has just happened.

I feel sorry for Frank..it is obvious he is in pain like many people dealing with the craziness of a post abortive friend. One abortion impacts so many people. I think if our society could see the many ways the death of one baby alters things, we would not be able to handle it.

The up side of that however is that healing is possible and healthy relationships be part of your life if you take the time to heal…then when you "fall in love" it will be the real thing, not some self centered ploy to make you forget your past which will only lead to more pain.
