Listen to these wounds of pain put in the form of questions to me by a young woman who had had two abortions 'I wonder about the spirits of those I had aborted, if they were there, if they were hurt I was under three months each time, but a mother feels life before she feels movement.' 'I wonder if they are lost and alone' 'I wonder if they will ever have a body' 'I wonder if I will ever have a chance again to bring those spirits back as mine' Alas, brothers and sisters, 'wickedness never was happiness' (Alma 4110).
