Letter from an Aborted Child:
Dear MUM,
I have decided to talk to you, to let you know my feelings. I want to know why you did it. My story is short.
I have stayed inside you for only three months. I was very comfortableand warm. I felt really protected. I know you are a special person becauseI ate the food you ate. I longed for the day I would see your face.
Nine months was a long time to wait, but I was determined to wait. I had to be patient.
One day I heard you converse with a man about me, and at some stage you quarreled. The man then offered you some money to get rid of me. I was happy and prayed that this meant that I would at least see you, the only person that I knew in the world. I was WRONG. I had almost forgotten the issues until I felt something sharp pierce my tiny ear. I jerked silently and helplessly in pain, and asked you to protect me. Seconds later the object came, fiercer than before. I was being cut up, starting from the ears, then arms and legs.
It was an agonizing experience, my head was then cut off and I died. It took me a whole hour to die, a whole hour for an innocent three monthshuman being to be murdered. I remember the whole incidence vividly andI keep asking myself, what I did to deserve that cruel death? Why me? Why did you do it to me?
And why was I not given a chance to live? I know you are having a lot of nightmares. You remain guilty for the beastly act. Please explain to your God why you committed the heinous act. Personally I have forgiven you though I never lived to see your face. My journey back to my creator was safe. I was given a red carpet welcome by an angel. I am in fact, without bitterness.
I STILL LOVE YOU MUM.
