Thy Will Be Done!
April 26, 2005
After marriage, I enjoyed freedom in most aspects in life. I thought of not having a baby until our first year anniversary. But Jing did not want to meddle with nature. He wanted a baby right away! After 3 months of waiting, we finally got a double line!
But no, I was diagnosed to have a blighted ovum. The fertilized egg did not produce an embryo. We were devastated. I was suddenly lost.
Fortunately, we were blessed with another pregnancy. It was only 3 months after my D&C when we got a double line! And the rest is the reason for my weight gain…
Basing on my experience, I’d say, I am against abortion. I feel lucky to have married a God-fearing person. I am convinced that cutting the breath of his own flesh would be the last thing that he would want to do.
The only thing that would make me or him consider abortion is when I’m placed in the position of Beverly. It would be a very tough decision but we would most likely be inclined in choosing MY life over the one in my womb. Simply put, not only my husband would be needing my tender loving care but also the baby in my tummy would soon be looking for maternal love, which only me can sincerely give. We would know that God would want us to save my life because He sent the message to the doctor who would have given the diagnosis. It’s already a sign by itself.
