    It’s okay, I really just wanted you to take a look and see if you were judging. Rarely do I get offended. Being a midwife I can imagine you’ve seen allot.

    You stated you get on a pedestal when you think somethings wrong. I guess that’s a natural response. But remember; there are only opposites in life; good bad, right wrong; yin yang; positive negative; protrons and neutrons. etc. We wouldn’t know one with out the other.

    The nucleus represents our power of choice.

  5. FreedomGale Says:

    Thank you and I’m sorry about your Mom. Getting clean is not easy by any means. Depending upon your drug of choice and length of time and degree of use. Some never find freedom but many others do. God Bless You Too!

    Peace and Blessings, Vivian/aka Freedom Gale

    im so sorry! i get on a pedestal when i think something’s wrong!! i’m a midwife and i get so sick of it when i think people are judging women in tricky situations! sorry if you thought i was judging you – unintentional, i was more angry with some of the other people’s comments.

    Please just pass it on to help someone stop break the cycle.

    This song was written because of my own struggles with drugs up into my 3 trimester. It’s a wake up call; its to help others who may have or are dealing with the same issue think about what the fetus is experiencing as an alive soul.

    It is not me who is judging it is you. But I am glad that you care enough to take a stand and let your voice be heard. Thanks for stopping in.

    Vivian. Ps, I cried for two days writing this song; but it has been very healing and helpful in treatment settings.

    there’s a lot of judgement going on in these photos. it is terribly sad when babies are withdrawing, i’ve seen it and it make me cry. but the women feel it too – some of their lives are hideous and turning to addictive substances mightve been an answer – there are alternatives during pregnancy; methadone, subutex etc. neither good for a fetus perse, but full blown maternal withdrawls may lose the baby entirely. yes its aweful, but videos such as this aren’t necessary – hows does judging help?

    A moving song. Where did you get the images for your video?

  15. r2d28877 Says:

    well I have the up most respect for you for having the courage ad strength my mom never could I found her half naked and dead on her bed room floor from a OD. You are a real woman for turning your life around and doind what you could for your child. At least you realized it in time . God bless you

  16. galevivian Says:

    Thank you for sharing that. I went in treatment six and a half months pregnant with a cocaine addiction. I was clean a month when I went in by gods grace.

    It was hard but I had to do it for my baby. That’s where this song came from, my guilt and shame and from watching my daughter suffer when she came out the womb. Thank God, it could have been worse.

    But for the grace of God, go I.

  17. r2d28877 Says:

    thank you for this video though it made me cry. I was an addict baby myself, lost my mother to drug addiction when I was only 16. People nee to wake up and realize the seriousness of addiction and how it effects the people around them not just themselves. Addiction will always be a selfish disease.

    sad. WHY?????

  19. galevivian Says:

    Unfortunately these are real pics of babies and children, non of them are fictitious. I’ve worked in the field over 14 years and have see it with my own eyes.

  20. DirtyNachoDipper Says:

    wow what a misuse of some internet forum made pictures and other things.

  21. galevivian Says:

    There is a saying in NA and AA, “but for the grace of God go I.”

  22. onediva69 Says:

    I’m looking at my one-month-old, and can’t believe this shit….I love my duahgter and could never do this

  23. ShutYourMomUp Says:

    i mean, it isn’t right, but it changes people.
    having a baby like that.

  24. galevivian Says:

    I know, I have one, she’s 15 now.

  25. ShutYourMomUp Says:

    they don’t all die.

    it’s not always like that.
