Some days back I happened to visit a gynaecologist with my friend for her routine check up.When we reached to the doc ,she was busy consulting other patient so we were waiting for our turn. All of a sudden we all heard the doc shouting...we all were quite surprised as she is a very jolly good lady.A couple came out of the consulting room. Now it was our turn.We entered in the room. After my friend's routine check up,i asked the doc why she shouted.In her words:"arre,this couple wanted to get aborted their child ...just because,they learnt from some other laboratory,ITS A GIRLCHILD...when i refused to do so,they told me very bluntly that they would go to another doctor for the abortion...and i lost my temper...."
This incident made me write something as if I WERE THAT UNBORN CHILD.and so i wrote and sharing with you..

ReplyDeleteFollow up e-mail from the unborn child:
ReplyDeleteFrom: Miss. Girl Unborn (aborted@stonehearts.com)
Subject: On second thoughts ...
Dear Parents,
After my initial emotional outburst in the last mail, I did some cool contemplation. I conclude that you were right in aborting my journey to the world and I'm happy as I am. Because if you can think of killing an unborn child then I can't think of being born as your child.
I realize that the killing would not end at the abortion alone - it would continue over & over again - at education, in society, in crowded buses, in the dowryied weddings, etc.
I just saw some "Ram Saniks" molesting the "seetas" of the world so badly that would put "Ravanas" to shame.
I guess I am happy here - here even the "swaroop nakhas" are respected.
Thanks for "saving" me.
Never yours
Girl
it was impressive and touchy, not only I enjoyed reading it made feel differently. thanks keep writing.
