Publisher's Description
What do millions of American women have in common? They've experienced abortion. You might be one of these women. Or maybe it's your friend, sister, coworker, or the woman sitting next to you at church. Regardless, post-abortive women are in pain, and at some point, most will experience Abortion Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (Abortion PTSD). But they may never talk about it. Many are silent because they are filled with shame, grief, and guilt, afraid of judgment and condemnation. Few realize that peace is attainable through Christ's healing and the knowledge that because of His grace, they will reunite with their lost loved ones in heaven. Her Choice to Heal is designed to help women find a way to God's healing after this devastating choice. Written by a post-abortive woman, it includes testimonies of strength, healing, and hope. Sydna compassionately leads you on the difficult journey through denial, anger, and grief, to forgiveness, redemption, and letting go. Her Choice to Heal offers a roadmap to healing: practical suggestions, resources for help, space to journal, with the encouragement and hope found in Christ alone. About the Author Sydna Massé is the CEO & Founder of Ramah International, an international outreach organization designed to offer the hope of God’s healing to abortion’s wounded hearts. She is the author of the book and abortion recovery program, Her Choice to Heal: Finding Spiritual and Emotional Peace After Abortion, and the online abortion recovery website at HerChoicetoHeal.com. Sydna was one of the first women to publicly share her abortion testimony on the Focus on the Family broadcast in 1992 while serving as the Manager of Crisis Pregnancy Ministries (1991-1998).

“Her Choice to Heal is a rare tool in helping women who are struggling with the pain that often follows an abortion decision. Through Meier Clinics, we are increasingly coming into contact with post-abortive men and women who need direct ministry in grieving these children and coming to a point of peace through God’s redemptive love. This book is a great tool to help these clients understand the system we employ in processing this pain and move forward in embracing the healing that God provides.”
“The word abortion brings judgment, shame, heartache, and defensiveness to the surface. The war regarding abortion is intense and dark and is seldom addressed with the clarity, compassion, and conviction of God’s mercy as found in this excellent book. Sydna Massé has offered those who have experienced abortion firsthand and those who love them a wise and kind path for healing. She is honest, hopeful, and passionately convinced that the love of God is stronger than death, and transformation surer than shame. I am profoundly grateful for this labor of love.”
“Even though I’ve never had an abortion, this book has helped me. A must read for post-abortive women.”
“A valuable contribution to tearing down the stone wall that too many women have built in order to hide the truth and the shame.”
“For those of you who have struggled with the guilt and shame of abortion, this book offers hope and healing. God’s blessing to Sydna for her courage to speak to the broken-hearted.”
“Through the loss of my husband, Keith Green, and two of our young children in a plane crash, I am intimately aware of God’s tender mercy and care for those who grieve. A few years after Keith’s death I started Americans Against Abortion as the pro-life arm of Last Day’s Ministries. How I wish Sydna’s book had been available back then as we took part in pioneering the pro-life movement across the nation. In Her Choice to Heal, Sydna shares the clear hope that God can forgive and redeem the pain suffered after an abortion. If you or someone you know has experienced this tragedy, I highly recommend this book.”
“What people are saying about … Her Choice to Heal “For women who suffer from the emotional aftermath of abortion, Her Choice to Heal is a wellspring of healing waters. This is not a book to be read, but a book to be experienced. With deep empathy, Sydna Massé offers hope to those women who suffer from the emotional pain following an abortion. She points the way to healing through Christ.”
“In your neighborhood, your office, or in the church pew next to you, there are women who are silently suffering from the pain of a choice they made to end the life of an unborn child. It may have been years ago or just a few days ago. You may know the pain yourself. This is a book that can begin the process of healing the ache in your soul.”
“The author cut right to the core of the personal turmoil a woman experiences after an abortion. Hope is given in a simple, step-by-step approach that assures women everywhere that they can find healing from these spiritual and emotional wounds.”
“God is using Sydna Massé’s wounds to help heal the many women in this church who are suffering from the pain of abortion. Her Choice to Heal is an astonishing work of depth, sensitivity, compassion, and practical advice.”
