When my boyfriend cheated on me almost 30 years ago I thought it would forever remain the darkest day in my life. It didn’t compare to my Abortion that followed for this reason.
During my Abortion I felt as though I was being torn apart.
After my abortion I was disabled, the secrecy magnified my shame and became toxic to my health and spirit.
I already had two other children but how do you parent when you are suffering so deep. For years my children had a zombie as a mother.
As Time went by I grieved each milestone my child should have reached like birthdays, graduations but most of all the grandchildren you will never see.
My healing came while working at a Gift Shop as a young girl entered the store contemplating having an abortion. Immediately I shared my testimony with her hoping to spare her from a lifetime of pain. She thanked me for my testimony but left undecided. About a year and a half later I heard a knock at the Gift Shop door. I began to shake because there to my surprise she stood in front of me with her beautiful 6 month bouncing baby boy as her words will forever echo in my heart. “I want to introduce my son to the woman who saved his life.” I told her I am just a servant of the Lord, as I lifted her smiling baby boy to the Heavens….Exclaiming this one for you
After that incredible experience I went to confession then attended a Rachel’s Vineyard weekend retreat I found help and forgiveness through Rachel’s Vineyard weekend retreat. I found the group setting very helpful, I learned that I was not alone. Others had experienced the same symptoms especially the trauma resulting from not voicing the pain. The support system and healing process of Rachael’s Vineyard opened me up to God’s mercy and love and spiritually I found my way back home. Renewed, I vowed to do everything within my power to help prevent other women from suffering as I did, as I am “Silent No More”.
