Did you know that a woman considering abortion is much more likely to choose life if she is given the chance to see an ultrasound image of her child?
That’s how it was for 19-year-old Valerie. Six weeks pregnant, abandoned by the father, and pressured by her mother to have an abortion. Valerie was confused, frightened, and alone.
Believing she should have an abortion, Valerie and her mom came to a local pregnancy medical center and asked for an ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy. But when the scan showed Valerie was not six weeks along but 12 weeks, her mom walked out of the exam room in stunned silence.
Then came a miracle . . .
A few minutes later, she walked back into the room, looked at the ultrasound scan again and pronounced, "That is my grand-baby. And we will not be having an abortion." In an instant, all of Valerie’s tears and anguish turned into joy!
Can YOU see it in the image above?! That’s a baby, just like Valerie’s, created by God, with infinite worth!
It’s amazing what hearing and seeing that precious life can do to an abortion-determined woman.
