Taken from a Priests for Life newsletter

This forum is a place to discuss issues regarding NFP (Natural Family Planning) and related subjects. It is a place not only to talk about the mechanics of NFP, but also about the moral and physical dangers of contraception as well as the joys and blessings of children and families. As in the other forums, the teachings of the Catholic Church are to be respected. Keep conversation adult and polite.

RU-486 Reversal

Dr. Matthew Harrison, one of our medical advisors at Priests for Life, recently told us of a woman who came to his office after having taken RU-486 at an abortion mill. After taking the drug, she changed her mind about having the abortion and wanted to save the baby! The RU-486 process requires taking a second drug three days later, and she had not yet taken that second drug. Because RU-486 interferes with the working of progesterone (and therefore begins a process of starving the unborn child), Dr. Harrison decided to give the woman a progesterone treatment. It worked! After he continued this treatment through her pregnancy, the baby was born healthy!

Neither doctors nor pregnant mothers should too easily conclude that "it's too late" when it comes to the life of a baby! If you hear of someone who has taken RU-486 and has changed her mind, don't let her think it's too late. And if you are a sidewalk counselor, please keep this story in mind as you talk to women who come out of abortion mills after having taken this deadly drug!
Domine Non Sum Dignus!

Holiness is not for wimps and the cross is not negotiable, sweetheart, it's a requirement.
