00:00:00.000 there's a sonograph picture and i thought oh man is there a picture of my baby in my records
00:00:05.640 and i was just like immediately go to email them and get them and it was one of the hardest things
00:00:10.700 to go look at those records and see that but i'm so thankful that i have it because it's like the
00:00:15.260 only picture i have of my child so um i think at the very least this is something that women should
00:00:21.740 be required to see and know that a heart a heart starts beating at 21 days i didn't know that and
00:00:27.500 I mean, even before it, that's when it's detectable. Uh, I believe it's beating from
00:00:32.880 the beginning. And even if you can't detect it, and even if there is no beat, we know that life
00:00:38.140 begins at conception. So, you know, that that's really critical. But after this happened, I really
00:00:43.260 started to spiral and get darker and deeper into the new age. Cause I was trying to find healing.
00:00:47.960 I'd actually gone back to the clinic four months after the procedure, because I was like,
00:00:52.000 something's off. Like I was like kind of okay, but now I'm not okay. And I'm wondering if it's
00:00:55.940 related and they did not connect the dots. They were like, everyone has their own experience,
00:01:00.240 but like, what else is going on in your life? And at the time I was like, I don't know if I
00:01:03.720 should be dating guys or girls. I don't even know if I should be working where I'm working.
00:01:06.780 And I had a lot going on. And so they focused on that. And I left there thinking, okay,
00:01:10.420 this that I'm feeling doesn't have to do with the abortion. So I never, I just put it away.
00:01:15.580 And I continued to try to seek healing, go deeper into different new age modalities. I became a
00:01:20.860 Reiki master. I was doing all sorts of crazy things, like pretty much everything in the new
00:01:25.120 that is there, I did it. I tried it. And it was this constant striving and this fleeting peace,
00:01:31.800 but I thought, well, I'm getting some peace, so this must be good. I'll just keep doing this
00:01:35.700 because I didn't know the true peace of Jesus.
