An inspiring story from the sidewalk.
Wednesday was an interesting day in Queens. In front of one of eleven abortion clinics in Roosevelt Avenue and playing The Silent Scream in spanish on a 37 in widescreen TV, I met a woman who was pushed by her doctor to abort.
Throughout most of her pregnancy, her doctor told her over and over at every single appointment, that she should have an abortion. The reason? He said it was a 'risky' pregnancy: she was anemic.When she was around 5 months pregnant her doctor told her that it was her last chance to have an abortion.
She delivered with no problem for her or her baby!
Thank God, she didn't change her mind because she is now a proud grandmother: her son (who according to that doctor didn't deserve to live because there was a risk for her mother) is the happy father of two beautiful children.
