Lifenews.com has an article written by Julia Halcomb, the mother of Steven Tylers aborted baby. Having read so much about her experience written by others, including Kevin Burke and Steven Tyler himself, she felt she wanted to share her side of the story.
Of course, the two sides are a little off, but it was a long time ago and not surprising since they certainly were leading lifes of drugs and partying, so I am sure they both are telling their truth.
“He has talked of me as a sex object without any human dignity. I have made a point over these long years never to speak of him, yet he has repeatedly humiliated me in print with distortions of our time together. I do not understand why he has done this. It has been very painful.”
It is probably the only way he can live with what he has done. Somehow he has had to justify and live all these years with what he had seen and knowing what he has done to her and his own son. If he makes her out to be a sex object it is easier to keep rationalizing and justifying. I am praying for him. Give him time..God is working and no one is beyond His mercy.
I am so happy to hear that Julia seems to have found the peace of Christ, and to be honest also glad she has chosen to remain anonymous for the sake of her family.
I of course, can relate to a lot she says since I also had a saline abortion which she describes below. My son was not born alive, but I can just imagine the impact this must still be having on Steven Tyler having watched that horrific scene of his son being aborted and dying. Prayers for them both..Jesus got Julia and I know He is not finished with Steven yet....maybe this will all be a cataylst for his conversion.
Julia’s Story
My maiden name is Julia Holcomb and I am writing in response to Kevin Burke’s article Post Abortion Trauma from the National Review. I found the article he wrote about Steven Tyler remarkably compassionate while outlining the trauma of abortion. My name was mentioned in this article, as it has been in several other articles that have been written lately, and in several books. I decided it was time to tell my story honestly, to the best of my memory, hoping to bring closure and peace to this period of my life.
In November of 1973, shortly after my 16th birthday, I met Steven Tyler at a concert in Portland, Oregon. To understand what leads a 16-year-old girl to find herself backstage at an Aerosmith Rock Concert, and in a three- year live-in relationship with Steven Tyler, you need some essential background information.
Family Trauma
My biological father abandoned my mother while we were toddlers. He was a charming rogue of a gambler who came and went in our lives, leaving a wake of debt and infidelity. My mother had been encouraged to get an abortion (illegally) by more than one family member when she found out she was expecting me, (the middle child). Thankfully she gave birth to me and later to my younger brother, and was a loving mother. When Daddy’s gambling debts caused her small teaching salary to be garnished, she filed for a divorce. Even after the first divorce she had been a good mother, taking us to church, reading us the Bible in the morning before school, singing to us at night, and praying with us for our wandering father. She was gentle and supportive and I always knew I could go to her for help. When mother remarried my first stepfather, (who was an alcoholic) things became difficult.
