What the abortion clinics and the doctors don't tell you that you'll be haunted for years. I had a abortion 38 years ago. I was a single mom of 3 young children; they were all under the age of 4. My boyfriend told me he was sterile. I made a quick decision that has been of great sadness. Every year I think about it and the age that my fourth child should be. Take a look at your children, siblings or nephew's and niece's. Try to imagine life without them. I'm not religious, but I believe in a greater being. He has given you a baby. I believe that nothing happens in this world by mistake.
