Hi, Sarah,

A lot of women feel relief after having an abortion. But for many women, that sense of relief doesn't last. At some point down the road, you may experience deep and anguished regret at what you did. If that happens (and it is likely), please know that you do not need to suffer in silence. We will be here for you, and crisis pregnancy agencies have counseling and other programs available. We care about you. Please take care of yourself.

Hugs,

Pat

Hi Sarah, I had an abortion when I was in University, two weeks before my graduation and I thought it was the right thing to do at that time. I look back now and do not regret my decision because I was not ready for a child with a man that only wanted me for sex. Four years later with a good job and a great boyfriend I look back and keep wondering how different my life would be if I had my child with me now. I know I could have handled it and I believe in fate that things would have worked out. I know I can't go back and change things, I must keep moving forward, but openly and honestly about my experience and loss. I always dreamed I would have kids and I know I will, but sometimes I wish I had the one I lost. Just be open and don't put the bad memories to the back of your head because that's what I did and now 4 years later, they are coming back very strong and now I need to face it all over again in order to heal. I hope that you do not have any bad experiences, but we need to acknowledge the things that happen to us, good or bad. Take Care

Wendy
