help for others affected by abortion 

Family members such as grandparents or siblings of aborted children may also be impacted by abortion in many ways. Other relatives or friends may also struggle with feelings of grief or loss. While not much is known about this issue, there are some organizations offering support in these cases. Here is a list of some groups that may be able to help.
