Abortion

I just heard this story today: 

   A worried woman went to her gynecologist and said:  Doctor, I have 
 a serious problem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 
 yr. old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together.  
     So the doctor said: 'OK and what do you want me to do?'    
  
 She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your help with this.'      
 The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady:  
  
 'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too.'      
 She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.       
Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take  
care of 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms.  
This Way, you could rest some before the other one is born. 
  
      If we're going to kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it 
 is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms. 
  
      The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a 
Crime to kill a child!      'I agree', the doctor replied.  
'But you seemed to be OK with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution. 
  
      The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.  He had 
 convinced the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's 
 already been born and one that's still in the womb. The crime is the same!

Love says I sacrifice myself for the good of the other person. Abortion says I sacrifice the other person for the good of myself.


I do not believe in mistakes. 
Being pregnant by mistake is not a mistake. Whether it is not planned or it is not the time or it is a shame... It happened. Let the baby have the chance of living. The child is not a mistake. The child has a plan already for his life. God made it happen. 
Abortion is killing. Because it is ending a life before even letting it have the chance of living.

Story of One Eyed Mother

"My mom only had one eye. 
I hated her. 
She was such an embarrassment. 
She cooked for students and teachers to support the family. 

There was this one day during elementary school 
where my mom came to say hello to me. 
I was so embarrassed. 
How could she do this to me? 
I ignored her. 
Threw her a hateful look and ran out. 

The next day at school one of my classmates said: 
"EEEE, your mom only has one eye!" 
I wanted to bury myself. 
I also wanted my mom to just disappear. 

So I confronted her that day and said, 
"if you're only gonna make me a laughing stock, 
why don't you just die?!!" 
My mom did not respond. 

I didn't even stop to think for a second about what I had said, 
because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feelings. 
I wanted out of that house and have nothing to do with her. 
So I studied hard, got the chance to go to Singapore to study. 

Then, I got married. 
I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. 
I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts. 

Then one day, my mother came to visit me. 
She hadn't seen me in years and she didn't even meet her grandchildren. 
I yelled at her for coming over uninvited. 
I felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. 
Even my children ran away, scared of my mom's eye. 

I asked her, "Who are you?!" "I don't know you!!" 
as if trying to make that real. I screamed at her, 
"How dare you come to my house and scare my children! 
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!"

And to this my mother quietly answered, 
"Oh, I'm sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address." 
And she disappeared out of sight. 

One day, 
a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house in Singapore. 
So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. 
After the reunion, 
I went to the old shack that I used to call a house. 
Just out of curiosity. 
My neighbors said that she died. 
I didn't shed a single tear. 
They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.  

She wrote: 
"My son, 
I think of you all the time. 
I'm sorry that I came to Singapore and scared your children. 
I was so glad when I heard you were coming to the reunion. 
But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. 
I'm sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up. 
You see, 
when you were very little, 
you got into an accident 
and lost your eye. 
As a mother, 
I couldn't stand watching you 
having to grow up with only one eye. 
So I gave you mine. 
I was so proud of my son 
that was seeing a whole new world for me, 
in my place, with that eye. 
With my love to you, 
your mother."

He burst into tears. 
He could never forgive himself for making the biggest mistake of a lifetime. 
He realized how lucky he was to have a mom like her 
and how selfish he was that never even cared for her. 
It was an extremely sad day for him. 
He would never get his mom back. "
