"Miriya's Story of Life"
“Miraya” didn’t want a baby. Her life was already so chaotic.
Miraya’s husband had just walked out on her, and she didn’t know how
she would support herself. She didn’t want to bring a baby into the mess.
Further, everyone in Miraya’s life was encouraging her to abort. Seeing
Miraya’s anxiety and uncertainty, they told her that an abortion was an
easy way to fix the “problem.”
But it didn’t feel right to Miraya. When she spoke with a Human
Coalition nurse, she admitted that she didn’t want to abort her child.
Miraya didn’t think she could live with the guilt.
At the same time, though, she was scared she wouldn’t be able
to raise the child on her own...
