Many women have come into my office suffering from post-abortive syndrome. Some can't even remember the number of times they have put themselves on the table. And they don't want to. Because abortion isn't like having your gall bladder removed. It is an ugly scar that you try not to look at.
So when a woman comes in who looks blank and unresponsive, it almost brings me to tears to see that in the midst of our counseling.. something has shifted. She allows herself to feel, to remember. And I know that a change has been made. This woman has let someone else carry her burden. And now she can begin to heal. It is a beautiful thing.
