OCTOBER 5-- Today my life began. My parents do not know it yet, I am as small as a seed of an apple, but it is I already. And I am to be a girl. I shall have blond hair and blue eyes. Just about everything is settled though, even the fact that I shall love flowers.

OCTOBER 19-- Some say that I am not a real person yet, that only my mother exists. But I am a real person, just as a small crumb of bread is yet truly bread. My mother is. And I am.

OCTOBER 23-- My mouth is just beginning to open now. Just think, in a year or so I shall be laughing and later talking. I know what my first word will be: MAMA.

OCTOBER 25-- My heart began to beat today all by itself. From now on it shall gently beat for the rest of my life without ever stopping to rest! And after many years it will tire. It will stop, and then I shall die.

NOVEMBER 2-- I am growing a bit every day. My arms and legs are beginning to take shape. But I have to wait a long time yet before those little legs will raise me to my mother's arms, before these little arms will be able to gather flowers and embrace my father.

NOVEMBER 12-- Tiny fingers are beginning to form on my hands. Funny how small They are! I'll be able to stroke my mother's hair with them.

NOVEMBER 20-- It wasn't until today that the doctor told mom that I am living here under her heart. Oh, how happy she must be! Are you happy, mom?

NOVEMBER 25-- My mom and dad are probably thinking about a name for me. But they don't even know that I am a little girl. I want to be called Kathy. I am getting so big already.

DECEMBER 10-- My hair is growing. It is smooth and bright and shiny. I wonder what kind of hair mom has.

DECEMBER 13-- I am just about able to see. It is dark around me. When mom brings me into the world it will be full of sunshine and flowers. But what I want more than anything is to see my mom. How do you look, mom?

DECEMBER 24-- I wonder if mom hears the whispering of my heart? Some children come into the world a little sick. But my heart is strong and healthy. It beats so evenly: tup-tup, tup-tup. You'll have a healthy little daughter, mom!

DECEMBER 28-- Today my mother killed me.

The above poem was written somewhere in the 70's. Long before the "Pro Choice", "Partical Abortion", or down right murder was agreed upon as legal and passed by the leaders of this country. Abortion was considered murder back in those days, it was still considered a sin and not a convenience. This "Nana" has a strong conviction on "Abortion" and I don't think you have to ask me what it is. In case you haven't figured out what I believe I will state it...... It is wrong.!! It is the taking of anothers life to accomodate yourself and dismiss your responsiblity for bringing an unplanned or unwanted child into the world. It is a plan of God's that you have said was not important and you have destroyed. For everything that God deems his, forever thing that we destroy, he will hold us accountable. How could anyone destroy a precious baby that is a living, breathing creation of God? It is beyond me. For those that have lost Children, myself included, before full term and wanted them so dearly this barbarous act of slaughter is unforgiveable and I believe God, himself, says.... "No murderer shall enter into the Kingdom of God." I didn't say it, God said it ! A thought to ponder on at this time....... Why do we continue to elect people to office in our government who support this action? There is no such thing as a partical abortion, it is outright murder. Have we as a Christian nation strayed so far from God's teaching that the life of a baby has no meaning, accepting aboration as a welcome release from responsibility? What about when time comes to stand before God and be judged? Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Jeremiah 1:5 If you have a squeamish stomach it will be best if you stop reading at this point. I intend to give a detailed description on partial abortion. On April 10, 1996, President Bill Clinton vetoed a proposed congressional bill that sought to ban a procedure known as the partial birth abortion. A partial birth abortion is a procedure in which a viable, living baby during the last months of a mother's pregnancy, is partially delivered. In order to achieve the abortion, the child must be murdered so that it will not be born alive; prior to the completion of the delivery. This is because the child, as a living and viable being, would in many cases, survive outside the mother's womb. After the delivery of the baby's body; hands, feet, legs, and arms, the doctor stops the delivery. The doctor then uses a scissors, or other sharp tool through the back of the baby's head which at this point, is still in the mother's womb in order to induce death. Through the incision, a suction tube is inserted into the baby's head in order to remove the baby's brain to ensure the baby's death. Essentially, the reason the baby's head is not delivered is for the purposes of avoiding the illegal, criminal act of infanticide. In addition to this, 80% *of these late month abortions are "purely elective", meaning that they are for birth control, rather than for health reasons. Article by Reuters' news.
