It's a gloomy and rainy day.
My Mom has an appointment
to see a doctor about me.
I am getting stronger every day
and I believe I am about ten
weeks old.
My Father goes with her to
the clinic but they both
are anxious and nervous.
My Father awaits in the
waiting room and my
Mom's name is called.
My Mother is comfortably
sitting on a table of some sort.
I believe she is waiting for the
doctor to examine her about me!
I hope I am causing no trouble
and everything will be fine with me
and my mom!
O' Lord help my mom today!
I can hear conversation between
my mom and the nurse.
They give her some information
about how to end her pregnancy
and that involves me!
The nurse leaves the room and
my mom awaits to see the doctor.
Suddenly, I can feel a nudge against
my body! It feels like a small tap but
I realize it's my mom!
She is weeping!
I can hear another voice
and my mom is listening
to her doctor speak.
He examines her and
some more words are
spoken.
My mom's weeping
went away and I don't feel
anymore nudging against
my tiny frame.
My mom is alone in the
room and she is free to
go!
As my mom stands up
and looks inside
her purse. She pulls
out the information she
was given about how to
end my life.
She puts the abortion
pamphlet inside the
trashcan and walks
down the hallway.
We pass by several
rooms
and wondering if any
mom is ending her
babies' life.
As we both are walking
down the hallway I
realized I will be able
to continue my growth.
I also realized I will
be known and
loved
because of
my mom!
"I safely passed by."

Dear Reader, this story reminds me
of Corrie Ten Boom.
She was released from the Death Camp
on January 1, 1945. She couldn't believe her
name was among the ones to be released that
day! She looked at her friends who wasn't so
fortunate.
She had tears of sadness and tears of joy!
She walked out of the gate with her small
belongings and held on tight to her dismissal
papers.
It was a cold New Years Day!
Everything looked beautiful and
gave her warmth inside.
{Corrie later found out that her
release was a clerical error. All
the women in her barracks had
been taken to the gas chamber
a few days after Corrie was
released. She would have been
among them.}
She safely passed by

The Mom discarded the given pamphlets

The Mom held tight to her unborn child
safely in her womb. And the child

In Corrie Ten Boom's release on
New Year's Day 1945, Corrie
passes by all the exit gates
holding her release papers
tight! Because of
a mistake due to clerical error,
she receives Life of Freedom.'
