Shelley - thank you so much for your kind words, your post truly had a calming effect on me and I thought about what you wrote all night long. I'll keep posting if you keep answering!!

Pat - while I truly, truly appreciate the fact that you took the time to respond to my post, and while I respect that you have your own opinion, however strong it may be, I believe the tactics you used - and have used in all your other posts to other women - are downright dangerous.

How dare you presume to know the relationship I have with my parents? To suggest that they may never forgive me if I choose to terminate the pregnancy is simply ignorant. You have no idea what their reaction woud be. Yes, they are Catholic but first and foremost, God preaches forgiveness. You should be ashamed at the guilt you are sending each and every confused woman on this board.

Secondly, it is irresponsible to suggest that it is "highly likely" to be hurt medically by an abortion. On what do you base that statement, other than your own beliefs? Women have the right to choose because we are in charge of our own bodies, and we decide what to do with our own lives. It is not a shame that we have this option - what would be a shame would be to force a woman to carry through an unwanted pregnancy, resulting in a baby that cannot be cared for as that baby deserves.

Again, thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. But I want you to know that you added an enormous amount of stress and anger to an already stressful day of mine. Guilt should not be a reason to keep a baby, and you need to find a better means of expressing your view. Please don't respond to any further posts of mine.
