“I was traumatized because I couldn’t have children in life. I married a man and I always had abortions.
When I had an abortion my husband was not even waiting for me to be healed He used to rape me sexually and the cycle of being pregnant and having abortion began as usual; in 10 years I lived with my husband I had 10 abortions.
He said traumatic words to me because I was not able to give him children. He married another woman. The woman had a child and when He came home he beat me, telling me that I'm worthless.
I was without help even the community pointed the finger at me. I was an unhappy woman who hates herself and who desired death.
At the tenth abortion I decided myself to leave my husband’s house because I wanted to die of grief. I have the pain in my heart of not having children. I am old now and I have no one to help me”.
We thank you for this rich moment which allows us to say what we have endured in our lives. I will try to do what you told us in this road of healing that we begin.
