I was an UNPLANNED post war German ORPHAN placed in 1956 and imported to America in 1961.

This picture was taken during my first reunion with my German family. It was taken in Prenzlau,Germany, on our 1st meeting since my birth.
This picture is here in the USA, of my life-mother, Carol with her great-grand-daughter Audrey Grace.
I am So grateful to my Mother for carrying me! And I am grateful to get to know my German Family!
I am Also grateful to the Nuns that cared for me in the #orphanage in Stuttgart.
and I am Very, Very grateful for my life Mother who raised me and My Family here!
If I had not been orphaned and my mother had kept me, she would probably have returned home to be with her family. The video below depicts East Germany near Berlin in 1959. My family lives in East Germany just North of Berlin. The creation of the wall separated them from her. She could have returned but would have lost her freedom and I would have been trained to respect Political Correctness in the new Socialist State.
Like her, I value Freedom over Political Correctness.

As an adopted orphan; both adoption and abortion are of great a concern to me. I relate personally to stories on these subjects, and there are many.

ON THIS QUESTION OF ABORTION, I CHALLENGE YOU TO CONSIDER...
THE WOMAN SEEKING TO ADOPT TEST
In as much as a woman should not be forced to seek a back alley abortion... No woman seeking a child should be forced to participate in or finance the abortion that ends the life of the child she longs for.
==================================
FAILED HOPES FOR COMPASSIONATE MIDDLE GROUND
Unlike many "conservatives", I held a glimpse of hope that during the Obama administration, this leader, who presented himself so effectively as a tolerant and highly skilled negotiator, might attempt to become a, "True Uniter." He had certainly won the hearts of Europe as evidenced by His Nobel Award.
Some in my family had warmly embraced his reasoning as hopeful and plausible. They saw in him a leader that would articulate the concerns of ALL WOMEN, and possibly right the injustices imposed through coercive government policies.
Perhaps he would end the involuntary subsidizing of abortion procedures. It seemed possible that through EXECUTIVE ORDER he would defund the compulsory portion of this largest taxpayer subsidized organization, and make Planned Parenthood "More-True" to its name.
How could he force women, that were seeking to adopt a child, to pay for the destruction of the very children they were hoping to adopt?
Historically, adopting a child is a very slow and difficult process that takes both time and money to complete. My Life mother Carol was able to circumvent much of the delay by going overseas.
According to the adoption Network organization website,
found at https://adoptionnetwork.com/
"The waiting period for a domestic adoption can span anywhere from several months to several years."
Surely the right's of women seeking to adopt were also important to President Obama!
He could accomplish this easily through Executive Order. The tool he used so frequently to please other groups.
An original of this post was presented on Google+ on September 29, 2015
titled "A Modest Proposal."
The MOST FAMOUS EXECUTIVE ORDER in American history was the, "THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION." It was issued by President Abraham Lincoln, on January 1, 1863. It freed more than 3 million predominantly black persons from the bonds of slavery. Since Abortion disproportionately ends the life of 3 black children to every one white child, it would seem that his powerful position was given for such a time as this. But sadly, this was not his view.
Instead he viewed the unplanned child as a punishment.
I do not believe those that are waiting for children to adopt share his view.
While an EXECUTIVE ORDER to remove funding would not address the question of personhood. (the essential question in both the emancipation proclamation on slavery, and the abortion controversy.)
It would be a step forward in demonstrating greater respect for all of humanity. Our stagnation on this issue has kept our nation divided and left the women seeking assistance increasingly vulnerable to an industry prone to abuse.
Although abortion is not altogether uncommon and happens spontaneously in the first four weeks in up to 1/5th of all pregnancies. is very uncommon in the months that follow. Until recently, this "More Natural View on Abortion," has guided much of our policy making. But today, we are being led to ignore the patterns found in nature.
Presently in New York, they are celebrating an expansion of perceived freedom for women as they legislated to accept extending the abortion without questions period to between six months and the moment of birth.
But what about the women seeking to adopt, those who are unable to conceive, or those who spontaneously lose their child? Should they also celebrate, or be forced to pay for the product of the celebration?
Like the one child policy of China, we have imposed a tyranny by "CHOICE" through an industry that targets many of our most vulnerable women. Instead of increased support and protection, current guidelines are being loosened for profiteers to exploit the fears of these women and harvest and sell the discarded bodies of their offspring.
We are not unlike the "PROPERTY OWNERS," in the pre-emancipated south, who enshrined their abuses in the protection of Laws. Legislation is the lesson Hitler learned while imprisoned as he wrote Mein Kampf. In his second attempt he crafted socially biased laws to target those he viewed as Untermensch (subhuman), similar to our biase toward our neonatal neighbors.

Do you see the disparity between stated goals and actual practice? In your mind, do these inconsistencies warrant further investigation or corrective action? How should the revelation of this information be handled?
Recently the reporters presenting themselves as research suppliers taped their conversations with Planned Parenthood executives. Instead of recognition for successful attempts at investigation and collecting evidence of wrongdoing. These "whistle blowers," were met with contempt and punishments and their evidence censored.
Pro-life Activists behind Undercover
Planned Parenthood Videos Suffer Legal Setback
By MAIREAD MCARDLE April 6, 2018)
see full article in link below.
The reporter behind the undercover videos of executives in the abortion industry discussing the harvesting of fetal organs will continue to fight the gag order on the rest of the videos, after the Supreme Court rejected their appeal on Monday....
Daleiden was held in contempt of court last year after he posted one of the gagged videos showing an abortionist admitting that the fetus is “a person,” and abortion is “killing.” Other videos show abortion officials haggling over the price of fetal body parts with the activists, who posed as organ buyers.

AN EXECUTIVE ORDER...
Addressing Planned Parenthood's failure to follow current regulations and forcing it and others to comply with Federal and State Law is essential for the safety of women.
Some History on Abortion in America
The abortion industry has a consistent record of failure to self regulate extending back to it's early days when Dr. Bernard Nathanson was director of the largest freestanding abortion facility in the world,
"The Center for Reproductive and Sexual Health in New York City, NY."
In his books he describes many common careless and deceptive practices made possible due to the lack of regulation in the industry. These practices continued for decades after he left the facility. It was eventually closed after an accidental death revealed the absence of a supervising anesthesiologists, improper equipment and improper procedures for monitoring patients under anesthesia and resuscitation. The facility was never re-opened.
Nathanson was a fervent Pro-Choice activist, and a founding member of (NARAL) the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws (later renamed the National Abortion Rights Action League, and now known as NARAL Pro-Choice America) He also worked with Betty Friedan for the legalization of abortion in the United States prior to the Roe v Wade decision.
At that time, medical opinion held that the nervous system of the fetus during the 1st and 2nd trimester was undeveloped to the degree that it could not experience pain or react to the abortion procedures. The arrival of the ultrasound device for viewing the child in the womb proved that to be false.
Nathanson, an early proponent for the use of ultrasound devices became unable to continue his work. He left the abortion industry and eventually became a Pro-Life Activist.
He wrote the book , Aborting America where he first exposed what he called "the dishonest beginnings of the abortion movement." In 1984, he directed and narrated a film titled The Silent Scream, in cooperation with the National Right to Life Committee, which contained the ultrasound video of a late term abortion.

Nathanson is often quoted as saying:
"Abortion is "the most atrocious holocaust in the history of the United States."
Some might say that defunding Planned Parenthood is merely an attempt to play politics with health care services. That Defunding Planned Parenthood would take away access to care.
But let's remember, Planned Parenthood is a mammoth organization incorporating thousands of volunteers, and
VOLUNTEERISM IS A FREE PEOPLE'S GREATEST FORM OF EXPRESSION!
It should not be underestimated.
But freedom from coercion is also a most basic components of a free society.
Since we are not at war with the unborn, we should not be involuntarily forced to participate in their exploitation and demise.
PRESIDENT TRUMP WRITES AN
"EXECUTIVE ORDER"
"to defund,"
"ONLY THE ABORTION ASPECT"
of Planned Parenthood,
AMAZING THAT IT WAS
TRUMP NOT OBAMA
THAT ESTABLISHED

The following is a lengthy article talking about challenges and difficulties abortion workers and physicians face including threats and violence, and the hazards to patients that repeatedly occur due to poor regulation and poor self monitoring by select colleagues in the industry.

FORSAKING SANCTUARY
BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN,
(some?)
THEREFORE HAVE RIGHTS
Photo source:
On December 6th of 2011, former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton spoke before the United Nations in Geneva Switzerland, giving what is considered to be her most famous speech. There she stated:
"All human beings are... free and equal in dignity and rights.. Rights, not conveyed by government, but the birthright of all people....
BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN, WE THEREFORE HAVE RIGHTS,
and because we have rights, Governments are bound to protect those rights... and allow freedom for the full expression of those rights.... "Today I want to talk to you about the work we have left to do to protect one group of people... in many ways, they are an invisible minority... Many are treated with contempt and violence by their fellow citizens while authorities empowered to protect them look the other way... "
Are you familiar with this speech? Is she saying that she is committed to protecting the rights of every human subject to violence or death due to discrimination? NO SHE IS NOT!
Here she is acknowledging the historical plight of the global LGBT population, and rightfully so; for the profound suffering many have endured.
But even as she strives to bring recognition to one group of hidden persons, she champions the destruction of another, as she continues to oppose any form of legal or social protections that would hinder their destruction. Another, much larger segment of our population: Those vulnerable to elective abortion among us.
Why are these humans residing in their mother's womb, deprived of their rights?
Is it our birth or our humanity that makes us deserving of dignity, freedom, and human rights?
As a human doesn't my birthright include my right to be born?
The sanctuary of the womb is experienced by every human, regardless of race, creed or gender description. It is the natural place of nurturing and protection foundational to all positive human experience.
I heartily agree with the sentiments of Hillary's speech, but unlike Hillary or Bernie, I believe that every human, regardless of race, creed or gender description deserve dignity equality and the freedom to peruse their rights as LIVING HUMAN BEINGS whether wanted by the powerful people in their life or not.

The theme of compassion combined with an avoidance of bearing the cost and the possibility of a research benefit is not a new motivation.
This Platinum Award-winning documentary reviews the extremely progressive culture that became dominant among Western Academia preceding Hitlers Holocaust. This film made for nursing education also describes how nurses used their professional skills.
The next link is to an extended article on the T4 program. It presents it's founders, and it's social application and social responses including church response. It is well worth the read.
following excerpts and photo from:
The Charitable Foundation for Curative and Institutional Care
was headquartered at 4 Teirgartensstrasse in Berlin .
As part of the 1939 Action T4 program it utilized Germany 's entire healthcare system. T4 mobilized Germany 's Public Health System including her Public Health officials, public and private hospitals, mental institutions and nursing homes.
T4 Nurses Hadamar
Questionnaires were distributed to elicit diagnostic, prognostic and genetic information to be reviewed by prominent “medical experts” and used to select patients diagnosed with incurable mental or physical handicaps.
Aktion T4 demonstrated the willingness of academics like physicians, nurses and other civil and public servants to participate in what they viewed as merciful euthanasia.
Dr. Victor Brack defended his medical practice during Action T4 at the Nuremberg Trials stating:
“We welcomed the program because it was based on the ethical principle of sympathy and had humane considerations in its favor."
Hartheim Center
All of these viewed their actions as progressive, responsible, act of good citizenship and even compassion. But today we clearly see it was something else. How is it that we are so easily blinded by our own actions at the very time we are busy doing them?
May God help us. Without Him we are Lost!
