REGINA: What compelled you to share your story?
ISABEL: I want to help prove to the world that abortion is not the answer. If I can become pro-life, anyone can.
Pro-choice people always make the argument that rape and incest should surely be reasonable grounds to have an abortion but whilst I would have agreed with that once, I know from experience it only makes matters worse.
REGINA: How do you feel about these ‘pro-choice’ people presuming to speak for women with your experience?
ISABEL: These people don't speak for me. I was a victim of rape and incest. I ended my pregnancy and that has traumatised me just as much, if not more than the way in which the child was conceived.
And she WAS a child, no matter what lies are taught in biology classes in even some Catholic schools.
REGINA: You were a victim of a pedophile ring, which your own father was a part of. How has that shaped your life from an early age?
ISABEL: They say personality is fixed by the time a child is five and my abuse started when I was still only a baby. My earliest memory is from around the age of two, so this was my normal.
