Healing Hidden Bruises - Paperback

by Arlene Lehmann (Author)

There is a connection between domestic abuse and coerced abortion. Women who go through these experiences often struggle with tremendous feelings of guilt, shame, grief, anger, depression, and trauma. Inthis book, you will find stories of women who endured domestic violence and underwent abortion-often under pressure, coercion, or intimidation. You will read about the pain they endured as well as how they found freedom, healing, and peace.
