Survivors of a World-Wide War

You must have heard about the war by now. Or haven't you? It's killing millions every year. No one it targets seems to stand a chance. After all, how could they? And yet, some have actually lived to tell the tale. The tale of surviving abortion, that is.

In 1978, Tina Huffman was a pregnant, unwed 17-year-old from a broken, dysfunctional home. Her mom and dad, as well as her boyfriend’s parents, adamantly insisted she had only one option: abortion. Tina yielded to their demands and had a suction abortion. But the abortionist "missed" Baby Heidi, even though he took most of the placenta and amniotic fluid. Heidi was delivered by C-section several months later.


Heidi says something that really struck me:

"I believe that all young people are survivors of abortion, just like I am, because they too could have been killed under the current policy of our government, which declared us "non-persons" when we were in the womb."

I had never thought about it that way. Thanks Mom, for choosing life!
