My dd 17 read on her IBS forum about this woman. Please pray for her. I'd like to have the right words for her. What can you all suggest? Here is her post:
I am going to terminate my pregnancy, my doctor has advised me to because I am in a high risk group. I've started menopause and have had several miscarriages and other factors.
What impact would this have on my IBS-C?
Here is the link:

Praying, Ruth, for the woman, and that horrible doctor giving that kind of "advice."

This just breaks my heart. I will be praying. Sorry I can't think of anything good to say. My brain is in zone mode. If I come up with anything, I'll let you know.

This is the info we got from Birthright. My dd posted it on the message board. Hopefully, she won't get kicked off, but, so be it. 
10% of post-abortive women suffer immediate complications such as hemorrhage, cervical injuries, convulstions, endotoxic shock, infection, embolism, chronic abdominal pain, perforated uterus, anesthesia complications, and cervical injury. Twenty percent of these complications are life threatening and could cause death within a week of the abortion
Post abortive women also suffer emotionally and psychologically. They exhibit multiple symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder including: Clinical Depression, Anxiety, Substance Abuse, Eating disorders, and Sleep disorders. Abortion hurts and you deserve better.
Women who choose to abort instead of going on with their pregnancy are:
3.5 times more likely to die in the following year
1.6 times more likely to die of natural causes
6-7 times more likely to die of suicide
4 times more likely to die of injuries related to accidents
Another study found that post-abortive women had a 62% higher risk of death from all cuases for at least 8 years after their pregnancies.
Be healthy! Take care of yourself and your baby. With IBS your body doesn't need the physical and psychological trauma of abortion.

Praying, praying, praying. So glad you posted those stats.
May Our Lady of Guadalupe intercede on the baby's behalf.

Someone from the forum wrote back, and wanted to know where we got the info. from. Just in case anyone ever needs this, it came form Elliot Institue. Click on "Research."
God bless.

Yes, they said the comments my daughter made were offensive. All she posted were the stats and the link to the Elliot Institute. I am very proud of her, though

What a sad world we live in when defending life is offensive and defending death is desirable and supportive.
I'm proud of your dd, too!

Your dd did a courageous thing. It must have hurt to be told her post was offensive. I hope my dd's will have her courage when they are her age.
