Whose Choice Anyway

I thought I would like to tell you I have just heard of your victory in the House of Commons, and I am very pleased with the result. I myself have been disabled from birth. Some mothers might have considered aborting a disabled person like me but fortunately my mother gave me the right to life. Good luck with your Bill which I am sure will eventually become law. I will remember you in my prayers.

Since I wrote to you at the end of September after I had heard the debate on abortion on The Times, the Place television programme, so much has happened.... It is so important to understand that all life is God's, the life spirit of all that lives in the living God, living everywhere and for ever. This is a wonderful truth for mankind. Man does not create life, for God is life itself and has always existed. There can be no excuse for aborting a child. There are so many loving arms waiting to welcome such a little bundle of love.

We sent a card to our MP urging him to support your Bill. We are delighted to have played a very small part in obtaining the desired result in today's debate. I thought it would please you to learn that my eldest daughter gave birth to her third son this morning and has named him Andrew David - his second name after you. Thank you for all your hard work. We will have a Holy Mass said for you. May God love and bless you.
