"Two years later, I’m driving upstate by myself. I look down and think that if I hadn’t had the abortion, there would be a baby seat next to me with a small child in it, resting comfortably, knowing it would always be safe because I was in charge. It might be a girl — I would have liked to have a daughter in the family mix."
You have to wonder after reading this article why she would be having these thoughts two years after, if, as she says ,she held no regrets. I also often wonder why those who are so emeshed in abortion feel that regret and grief are a bad things, but I know the answer, in admitting them they shatter the justification and rationalization of abortion.
"I am thankful to have been spared that agonizing sadness of guilt and regret"
It is not unusual for us to get calls from women in their 70's, 80's and even 90's about an abortion they thought they did not regret. Justification, rationalization and denial can last only so long…to be happy that you seem to have been allowed to end the life of your child with no feelings is not something to aspire to…I would not trade places with her for the world…

No One Called Me a Slut
By SUSAN HEATH Published: April 14, 2012
TWO weeks ago, a bomb went off outside a Wisconsin abortion center. In recent years, several states have passed or tried to pass laws requiring women seeking legal, constitutionally protected procedures to first undergo medical examinations. A young woman has been called a slut after testifying in favor of insurance coverage for contraceptive care. These are but a few of the stories about attacks on a woman’s right to choose.
It wasn’t always like this.
This is a story of how it used to be:
It’s 1978, five years after Roe v. Wade. I’m 38, I have four sons — the oldest is 17, the youngest is turning 12. I’m at school, getting a B.A., and I’m loving it.
I’m about two and a half months pregnant.
I don’t want this child.
