'No trauma, no tragedy, just routine'.

My Comment on Guardian

Ms. Toynbee, if I were a loved one and I had an abortion, you’d expect me to just get over it faster than a teeth cleaning? No hand-holding, no patient listening? Would you get angry with me if I cried a few  tears? Not worry about complications like infertility or cervical incompetence, no putting up with me wondering if it was a boy or a girl, or whether things are going to be different with my boyfriend, cos he wanted the abortion more than I did, and I think I hate him now.  And around the expected date of delivery, no special attention to take my mind off what might have been? No anxiety about me if, soon after the abortion, another family member joyfully announces her pregnancy and uses the word baby over and over? The Real World.

You have your eyes closed to what abortion really is. Many people don’t know of what they talk when they talk about abortion. View an ultrasound of what happens in the womb, and you will see that even at 10 weeks the foetus reacts in the same way as you or I if confronted by an attacker, for the foetus is not an inanimate tooth. Nevertheless, some do survive the attack.  Check out what Abortion Survivors think on the issue. http://www.theabortionsurvivors.com/ They were confronted with the Real World very early on.

Abortion cannot ever be a ‘normal event in a woman’s life, no trauma, no tragedy, just routine’.  The bond between mother and unborn baby is the physically closest possible in nature, and to break that is not a routine thing to do without ‘trauma’. That is the Real World.

The Unborn of the Sentient Born feels pain. Pathology medical students in the USA were disturbed by the facial expressions on dead babies – or ‘fetal tissue’ if you prefer. http://www.lifesitenews.com/blogs/pathologists-share-their-horror-stories-of-handling-bodies-of-aborted-babie
That is the Real World.

Irish Doctors being forced to practice Bad Medicine

Irish Doctors refused to follow an unworkable law and kill an unborn baby in the 2nd trimester because the suicidal mother wanted an abortion. They proceeded to treat her following evidence-based medicine and psychiatry. At the mother's renewed suicidal thoughts, and following the new law, they terminated the pregnancy at 24 weeks by c/section and handed Baby to waiting Pediatricians. Baby is being cared for in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
It is a tragic case but abortion is not a cure for suicidal feelings. There's no evidence! Irish doctors are not being allowed to practice Evidence-based Medicine!
The pro-choice lobby is angry. The pregnancy was terminated; they should be happy, because in their world view, the mother should now be CURED of suicidal thoughts as she is no longer pregnant.  But they are not happy, as outlined below.
I feel sorry for this poor woman, as she herself may have had the impression that an abortion would cure her, and the prochoice lobby are shamelessly promoting this bad medicine.

Margaret of Castello

Watched a beautiful movie about Blessed Margaret of Castello. Born with a spinal deformity and blind, she was hidden from the world by her rich high-ranking parents. Walled up in a room next to a church, she was helped by the priest, who ministered to her through an aperture in the wall. Jesus was her only company and she grew very close to Him...abandoned eventually in a strange city by her parents, she became known for her kindness and after she died they claimed her as their own. Her body lies incurrupt in the local church.
Rejected. God worked a miracle in this person rejected by her mother and father.
