Abortion/A woman's right

Hi Mommy,


I'm your baby. You don't know me yet, I'm only a few weeks old. You're going to find out about me soon, though. I promise. Let me tell you some things about me. My name is John, and I've got beautiful brown eyes & black hair. Well, I don't have it yet, but I will when I'm born. I'm going to be your only child, and you will call me your one & only. I'm going to grow up without a daddy m...ostly, but we have each other. We will help each other, & love each other. I want to be a doctor when I grow up.

You found out about me today, Mommy! You were so excited, you couldn't wait to tell everyone. All you could do all day was smile, & life was perfect. You have a beautiful smile, Mommy. It will be the first face I will see in my life, & it will be the best thing I will see in my life. I know it already. Today was the day you told Daddy. You were so excited to tell him about me! He wasn't happy, Mommy. He kind of got angry. I don't think that you noticed, but he did. He started to talk about something called wedlock, & money, bills & stuff. I don't think I understand yet. You were still happy, though. So it was okay. Then he did something scary, Mommy. He hit you. I could feel you fall backward, & your hands flying up to protect me. I was okay... but I was very sad for you. You were crying then, Mommy. That's a sound I don't like. It doesn't make me feel good. It made me cry, too. He said sorry after, & he hugged you again. You forgave him Mommy, but I'm not sure if I do. It wasn't right. You say he loves you... why would he hurt you? I don't like it, Mommy.

Finally, you can see me! Your stomach is a little bit bigger, & you're so proud of me! You went out with your mommy to buy new clothes, and you were so so so happy. You sing to me, too. You have the most beautiful voice in the whole wide world. When you sing is when I'm happiest. You talk to me, & I feel safe. So safe. You just wait & see, Mommy. When I am born I will be perfect just for you. I will make you proud, and I will love you with all of my heart.

I can move my hands & feet now, Mommy. I do it because you put your hands on your belly to feel me, and I giggle. You giggle, too. I love you, Mommy.

Daddy came to see you today, Mommy. I got really scared. He was acting funny & he wasn't talking right. He said he didn't want you. I don't know why, but that's what he said. He hit you again. I got angry, Mommy. When I grow up I promise I won't let you get hurt! I promise to protect you. Daddy is bad. I don't care if you think that he is a good person, I think he's bad. But he hit you, and he said he didn't want us. He doesn't like me. Why doesn't he like me, Mommy?

You didn't talk to me tonight, Mommy. Is everything okay?

It's been three days since you saw Daddy. You haven't talked to me or touched me or anything since that. Don't you still love me, Mommy? I still love you. I think you feel sad. The only time I feel you is when you sleep. You sleep funny, kind of curled up on your side. You hug me with your arms, & I feel safe & warm again. Why don't you do that when you're awake, any more?

I'm 21 weeks old today, Mommy. Aren't you proud of me? We're going somewhere today, and it's somewhere new. I'm excited. It looks like a hospital, too. I want to be a doctor when I grow up, Mommy. Did I tell you that? I hope you're as excited as I am. I can't wait.

Mommy, I'm getting scared. Your heart is still beating, but I don't know what you are thinking. The doctor is talking to you. I think something's going to happen soon. I'm really, really, really scared, Mommy. Please tell me you love me. Then I will feel safe again. I love you!

Mommy, what are they doing to me!? It hurts! Please make them stop! It feels bad! Please, Mommy, please, please help me! Make them stop!

Don't worry Mommy, I'm safe. I'm in heaven with the angels now. They told me what you did, & they said it's called an abortion.
Why, Mommy? Why did you do it? Don't you love me any more? Why did you get rid of me? I'm really, really, really sorry if I did something wrong, Mommy. I love you, Mommy! I love you with all of my heart. Why don't you love me? What did I do to deserve what they did to me? I want to live, Mommy! Please! It really, really hurts to see you not care about me, & not talk to me. Didn't I love you enough? Please say you will keep me, Mommy! I want to live smile & watch the clouds & see your face & grow up & be a doctor. I don't want to be here, I want you to love me again! I'm really, really, really sorry if I did something wrong. I love you!
I love you, Mommy.
Every abortion is just
One more heart that was stopped.
Two more eyes that will never see.
Two more hands that will never touch.
Two more legs that will never run.
One more mouth that will never speak.

I came across this yesterday first I would like to say this is a very sad letter.  I'm not for or against abortion. I say this because I believe in a woman's right to chose if she wants to have a baby or not. It's her body she goes though all the changes for nine months. She has to deal with the mental issues there may be in whatever her case is. I'm not saying this should be a form of birth control no never. There should be a limit to one abortion in the extreme case of rape, incest or if someway she can't carry it due to her health. I know pro-life people would think otherwise. I hate to bust their bubble all women can't deal with those issues with help or without it. Yes, the woman could give the baby up to a couple who wants a baby. Yes, I agree to that also but if you were to put yourself in another woman's shoes you may not be able to stay pro-life. The pain of going though a rape is very unbearable for some then having to make a choice about the life that is growing inside of you. I know what I went though being pregnant I know all my thoughts that ran though my head. I'm thankful that the father of my two boys was able to step up and be a man. I had a very good support system from him who later asked for my hand in marriage. Being married for seven years to the father of my children has been the best decision I have ever made. I'm sad to say a lot of women don’t have the man to help nor the support system they need from family and friends. You don't need a man to raise a child I know plenty of single mothers who have done a great job with their children. It all comes down to the woman to be strong and independent.  As for the letter above Domestic Violence is something most people don't understand. This letter could have been a story on the news of the father killing the baby and mother. In fact I am friends with a lady who was abusive by her husband for many years. The day that was suppose to be a happy day to bring a child in the world turned out to be her worst nightmare. He didn't let her go to the hospital right away he decide to bet her up. She got sick while she was in labor. As she was hanging over the toilet her husband was kicking her in the belly and tried to drown her in the toilet. When he allowed her to go to the hospital between the nurses coming in and out he was punching her in the belly and chest. His excuse was that he didn't want another man looking at her private parts. I asked her why she didn't say something to the doctor while she was there. Turned out the husband never left her side she never got the chance to. I think child abuse cases have a lot to due to the fact that a lot of women where not able to get an abortion. If you were a victim of incest or rape can you imagine all the hate that can build up inside a person only to have them let it out on those poor innocent children? I think pro-life people need to back off and let the person chose the woman. I give credit to the women who can overcome what happen to them to be able to raise a happy child. Sadly there is not that many around. Abortion should be handle case by case. Yes, it is very sad to end a life GOD gave you but in some cases what do you think is the best for the lady above and my friend. Keep in mind a little pink piece of paper doesn't do much for a woman who is running for her life. In most cases if it goes to court the father gets the kids while the judge sits up on chair and says JUST BECAUSE HE IS MEAN TO YOU DOESN'T MEAN HE WILL BE MEAN TO THE CHILDREN. They are always wrong!!!! A man that hits never changes never cares about what he has done. Let's not forget the pregnant women murder. Their last breath is taken by a boyfriend or husband look it up.
