Our deepest truths rise from crevices often only discovered during great pain. In Already Forgiven, Elizabeth Boyd has captured the fullness of life's true purpose: Awakening to a greater Love. -Dr. Sue Morter, author of The Energy Codes
Though others may judge you, here there is no judgment. Your decision to have an abortion was complicated and personal, and it was the only choice to make at the time. Unfortunately, there was no way to anticipate if, when, or how the trauma would land for you.
If you're holding this book, my guess is that you're grieving a loss in silence and isolation. You're feeling alienated, unloved, and unsupported by every anti-choice, anti-abortion voice who seems to care more about your unborn baby than they care about you. You're angry with yourself for not handling your past more skillfully. You're frustrated that healing seems so slow, complicated, and elusive. After all, you've done everything. What more could you possibly have to do to get past the pain and carry on with your life in joy and peace?
This memoir tells my story-how I reached a place where I chose abortion, the aftermath of that decision, and the specific steps I took and tools I used to heal. If you are still searching for healing after an abortion, my hope is that here you encounter loving, kind support. May this book inspire you to take the next step on your journey back to wholeness. May it also provide some solace in the knowledge that you do not walk this path alone.
Love, peace, and healing are yours.
