Author shares letters to aborted children in new memoir
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif. (PRWEB) September 24, 2014 -- Poignant letters to the unborn children of a woman ravaged by the effects of abortion takes readers on an emotional journey in the new book “My Name is Mom” (published by WestBow Press) by Anna Chambers.
Chambers wrote a series of letters to the children she aborted when she was 17 years old. Now she publishes those letters to offer others healing words of comfort and express how she came to terms with her decisions through God’s help. The entries detail the events, thoughts and emotions just prior to Chambers’ abortions and the horrendous events that unfolded as a result of her decision to abort each pregnancy.
“Ultimately my hope and prayer is that by reading my story other women can take an honest look at their own experience with abortion and give their pain, guilt and loss to Jesus Christ, who alone can truly heal and restore their lives,” Chambers says.
An excerpt from “My Name is Mom”:
“At my first visit to the clinic I sat for what seemed like an eternity in a cold green room, waiting for my test results. Finally a nurse entered the room and confirmed my fears. I did indeed have a most unfortunate growth. The way the nurse put it, I could have you removed and it would be a quick and simple procedure. She assured me that when it was over I would be able to go on with my life and never look back.”
