My name is Mandy and I am an abortion survivor. I made a selfish and fear based choice to have an abortion when I was 24 years old. At the time, I had no one to turn to afterward and felt completely isolated and shame filled. As years passed, and I continued holding on to the guilt and shame, those feelings began seeping into my everyday life, my thoughts , feelings and actions. I never received counseling over the decisions I made and what I went through. And my emotional health took a dramatic toll because of the weight of the abortion that I carried. I found myself longing for my baby, and wishing I had never made such a thoughtless selfish decision. There is much more to my story. Now, 14 years post abortion, and having made the decision to follow Jesus several years ago, I now have made it a priority in my life to spread as much awareness as I can about the emotional after math that having an abortion can cause.
I am so grateful for Preborn, and what they can do for other women and young ladies who may be facing hard decisions or contemplating abortion themselves. When I found out about Preborn, and began researching what they do for others, It was a NO brainer for me, and my family. We knew we immediately had to start a campaign. In honor of our precious baby whom I pray we get to raise in heaven some sweet day, and for all of the aborted babies and mothers who suffer with long term emotional effects from having an abortion.
