| In Memory of Jade Rees and her Unborn Baby |
By Carly Hollman
Jane [Jade] Rees, 21, was pregnant with her boyfriend’s child when he left her for another woman. After the five-month relationship ended, a devastated Rees underwent an abortion.
Weeks after she had the abortion last October, Rees attempted suicide, but she was unsuccessful. The young U.K. woman was rushed to hospital after overdosing on prescription pills. After doctors saved her life, Rees was admitted into a psychiatric services program.
But just days after the first episode, Rees hanged herself at home. Rees’s mother was the first to discover her daughter’s body Nov. 4, the morning after her suicide, along with a collection of chilling notes Rees had addressed to her parents and her 2-year-old son. Rees’s parents later discovered that their daughter had been listening to the song “Small Bump” by Ed Sheeran when she took her own life.
An excerpt of the lyrics reads:
You’re just a small bump unknown and you’ll grow into your skin
With a smile like hers and a dimple beneath your chin
(Oh) Finger nails the size of a half grain of rice
And eyelids closed to be soon opened wide a small bump
In four months you’ll open your eyes
In the notes she left behind, Rees describes the guilt and heartbreak she felt following her procedure. She wrote that the decision to abort left her “upset and distressed” to the point that life became unbearable.
Note: The Blaze's story is incorrect regarding her first name. See http://www.mirror.co.uk/
Poor dear young woman...anyone reading this...remember...to treat those who have had abortions with kindness...many in our society have sold them the lies about abortion on demand being empowerment...being their right or their body...so the guilt is shared...and those who profit from her distress...are the true villains...note also there is a father...any males sleeping around who read this? How many children have you unknowingly created??!
