The nightmares, regrets and questions that have raced through their minds. Roe vs. Wade was supposed to give women control over their bodies and lives. As I searched the roots of Roe vs. Wade, I found this case is built upon lies. She carried her baby to term and gave it up for adoption. McCorvey says she has been emotionally tormented by her role in the abortion movement, haunted by simple things like empty swings in playgrounds.
Emotional torment is a good description of women suffering the aftereffects of abortion.
For the past eight years, I have ministered to such women. Their stories break my heart. Many find it hard to look me in the eyes, fearing rejection or condemnation. This might be the first time they have told their story to anyone, shame keeping them silent. I can't forgive myself.
