It is sometimes difficult to admit all that I\u2019ve experienced during past seasons of life, but oh how this one grew me! My prayer in sharing is to not only give a little hope to the woman who may be in a situation similar to that which was my own. But ultimately, if there were even the slightest chance that my story could soften the hearts of just a few, or perhaps plant seeds for change in our Christian community; then my past would be worth it!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">I had just turned 24. I had a precious little boy, Noah. We had an apartment and a car. I had a nice job, no insurance, but the pay was decent. We attended a small church in our community. Things were simple. There was plenty of time with my sweet little man. Life was great! I was so proud of the little life that I\u2019d created for us\u2026<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">Then I met Chris.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">He was wonderful! He was handsome, smart, and hardworking. Chris loved to surprise me with flowers and cupcakes. I was smitten, to say the<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">very<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">least. Things had been going very well for a while when I decided that it was time to see my doctor to inquire about birth control options for the future. I\u2019d been down this road before. I was wiser now and I wanted to be prepared. As it turned out, birth control was too expensive for me at the time. So I would need to save up my money.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">It wasn\u2019t long after my appointment that Chris became very controlling. He isolated me from my friends, my church, and in many ways-my family. He told me what clothes I could wear and where I could go and with whom. He had done this is such a way that I was genuinely convinced that this was all because he loved me so very much.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">One night after dinner, I decided that I\u2019d had enough of being told what to do and so I asked Chris to leave my apartment. He refused. Because he wouldn\u2019t leave and I could see that he was becoming more and more<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">agitated,<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">I tried to leave with Noah\u2026 that is when everything changed for me. Chris took my son out of my arms, beat me, and raped me on the floor of my living room. He locked me in my apartment for four days with no access to my phone. He went so far as to threaten my life and the lives of my family, if I ever told.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">Absolute shame, terror, and embarrassment! What had just happened? What had my baby witnessed? I felt all of the guilt. I was to blame. I was a terrible mother\u2026. If anyone knew; I\u2019d be labeled a whore. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/raped-fiance-newborn-son-saved-life\/\">After being raped by my fianc\u00e9, my newborn son saved my life<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>In the video below, Jennifer Christie speaks about how abortion is not healing for rape victims:<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5VU6FfaO6AA\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">A few weeks after, I learned that I was pregnant. Any courage that I\u2019d mustered up to remove us from that situation now felt out of reach. I was stuck! There was no way out but one, maybe. That option was to abort this new life that was growing inside of me. My heart couldn\u2019t [fathom] the idea. So many<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">times I\u2019d<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">heard the argument that \u201cIf it was rape;<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">it\u2019s justified.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">There was no justification for killing an innocent child who had absolutely nothing to do with how they were brought into this world. A life is a life. And contrary to popular belief, I believe that EVERY life is s<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">acred! My decision was final.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">I chose to stay<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">in an attempt to appear \u201cnormal.\u201d<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">\u00a0I spent my entire pregnancy being beaten, raped, and starved on an almost daily basis. Over those few months, I also lost my job due to black eyes and harassing phone calls that I\u2019d receive from Chris during work.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">I was so alone! People all around me could see what was happening and yet they let me sit in it alone. Maybe because I was too timid to ever ask for help, maybe they didn\u2019t know what to do, or maybe they just didn\u2019t want to get their hands dirty. The peo<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">ple who would make comments often had things to say like, \u201cYou<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">s<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">hould\u2019ve used protection\u201d or \u201cYou<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">shouldn\u2019t have done it in the first place.\u2019 Oh, but they just didn\u2019t know. That kind of brokenness is one I pray no one ever has to feel. I believe that being \u201cunknown\u201d and \u201cunheard\u201d is terrifying. There is room for so much misunderstanding and so much judgment\u2026 so much pain.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">The day finally came and a beautiful baby girl was born. While the nurses took Olivia back for her newborn screenings, Chris and I were left alone in my room for recovery. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll ever forget, as I was closing my eyes to rest, he jumped on top of me, saying that he was going to kill me. While being choked, I fought desperately to kick him off of me. I fought and fought and tried screaming for help, but was too weak. His last attempt to harm me was by grabbing my hair and slamming me to the ground. While I lay on the floor, he ran out of the room. That was the last time I ever saw him. The maternity ward was on lockdown. As an extra safety precaution the hospital gave Olivia and me fake names, moved our room, and allowed us no visitors, no phone calls.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/i-was-raped-at-14-but-i-refused-abortion-and-put-my-daughter-up-for-adoption\/\">Raped at 14, Crystal refused abortion and chose life: My baby is innocent<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">Thankfully, we have been very blessed because this is not the end of our story.
