Thank you for being brave enough to tell your story. Know, though, that no matter how many other babies you have, you will not recapture the little one you have lost. Each and every child, born or unborn, is an unrepeatable little human being and your heart will forever long for that little baby.

But don’t lose heart. Name your lost baby. Tell that little one that you love him/her. If you aren’t sure if the little one was a boy or a girl, use a name like Chris, Pat etc. Pour your heart out in a letter to your baby telling him/her how hard that time was for you, how unsupported you felt, how lost and alone. Know that your baby is safe in the arms of God whether you believe in Him or not.

Know you are loved and valued and that healing is available. Organisations run healing retreats for those who have suffered abortions. The administrator of this website may be able to advise re one in your local area.

Thank you again for your bravery and know that there are many of us praying for you.

With love and blessings,

Teresa
