Refusal

A friend of mine posted via Facebook about an article discussing refusal for emergency contraceptives for a rape victim.

Honestly a little speechless.

I understand religious beliefs and what not; but seriously deny someone that because you feel it is better to keep a child (if she was pregnant) of rape than allow them to erase the damage.

Granted - abortion is, in my mind, wrong. That is until a woman is raped...

However, I feel that if it is simply the semen they are getting rid of then by ALL means help the woman.

Also, I truly understand the thought of killing a baby is wrong, the thought of carrying a baby then giving it away is okay... etc. Yet, thinking of if I had got pregnant - what would I do?

I could not have carried the baby and 1. got rid of it 2. carried it happily. I know SINNER - but seriously every day you feel a baby that is half the rapists - ick. So, there is my opinion. Now Read This leave some comments and share!

RAINN 5K

If you have followed my personal blog; Sabrina's World you know I will be running the Warrior Dash. I was looking to see if there were any other races in Oklahoma that would relate to something close to my heart. I found one!

RAINN (Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network) is hosting a 5K Sept 9, 2012. The RAINN Run 5K is something I feel needs more publicity. The things they do and those they help are simply worth while. I can not wait to sign up for this event. To stand proud in support of a network who means so much to me. Hope to see others signing up and helping with this.

5K is not hard. I just ran it in 38.3 minutes... if you know me you know that is highly unlikely for me to make it under an hour. Yet, with determination and a cause I know I can achieve a greater time. See you in September.

Feel free to pass this along!

New Beginnings

It's been since July 2011 since my last post. I apologize. I intend on getting back into the posts full force.

If you have any stories you feel need more focus on please feel free to comment and I will dig deep into the story and pull the facts.

I leave you with this insight - not all things are lost.
