Interesting perspective

a book written by a woman who has been through it. It is candid and very honest. I recommend it.

Powerful book!

If you are a women seeking forgiveness from the Lord and from yourself because of an abortion, you have to read this book!! It really makes you understand what Jesus did on the cross for us!! It shows you that the Lord has a perfect plan for all of us; we just need to follow His narrow path and live our lives for Him! Thank you so much Noreen, for sharing your story; it really opened my eyes and helped me sort out some of the feelings I was experiencing!! God Bless!

Eye Opening

This story opened my eyes to the devistating effects on the emotional turmoil a woman goes through after having an abortion. I always wondered if a women has any remorse and or feeling of a child they aborted. This answered some of my questions. I highly recommend this book.

A message of hope and forgiveness

This is the autobiographical account of a woman's painful journey through the darkness of depression and the grief of rejecting her unborn child. It is only when she 'throws away her crutches' that she allows herself to find a deeper relationship with God. It is a tender and moving story told with a lightness of voice and a lack of self-pity that makes it a surprisingly easy book to read. It is a book that will appeal to so many people who are searching for meaning in their lives. It has particular resonance for anyone who has suffered an abortion, and for anyone who has suffered from depression. Finally, it is a tale of hope, reconciliation, forgiveness and peace. I recommend this book unreservedly.
