I was 16 years old and following the demands of my mother to either carry out her wishes to terminate my 26-week pregnancy or go away to live with strangers until I delivered. A pregnancy I fully intended to carry full term. I was simply terrified! I followed the orders and was sent to The Hope Clinic in East St. Louis, IL to have the 2-day procedure done. While it was certainly a devistating experience, I assume that all had gone as planned until in my partially sedated state I began to hear the cries of a newborn baby. Something had gone terribly wrong. There was not supposed to be a baby. I was so confused but not too confused to memtion to the staff what I had heard. I was quickly told that I had heard nothing..I must have been imagining it all. Not the case at all! It was the distinct cry of an infant. I had no experience with such young infants at that time so I had no frame of reference. But today, after delivering three children of my own, I know what I heard. I have tried to supress these memories for many years but they remain constant. I wonder if I can ever find out what happened to him/her. Did they save him/her? Did they do the unthinkable? Will I ever know? Will the emptiness ever be filled? Am I alone in this? Where is my baby?karmastarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581428434057728136noreply@blogger.com
