After sharing my conceived in rape story a few years ago at Lake County Right to Life’s annual fundraiser in Indiana, a sweet woman came up to me and through tears, shared her own story of having endured a forced abortion after being raped while in foster care. We’ve maintained a friendship since then, with […]
Petulant or Vigilant? The Battle For No Exceptions – By Jim Sable A new year of battling abortion begins, which means another year of fearless pro-life people fervently working to stop abortion has ended. You could call any year that passes without stopping abortion an unsuccessful year, but there were many successes in 2015, particularly: […]
During Christmas break of my Sophomore year, at age 16, I stayed with my 24 year old 2nd cousin. One night, she had a 19 year old guy come over who she’d met in a chat room. Everyone was drinking, and I believe that our drinks must have been drugged. I briefly “came to” in […]
I was 19 and living on my own, working as a nanny. An ex-boyfriend of mine who I was still friends with was going to come over to visit, as I had just recently moved into my new apartment. He came in and we visited, and before long he was kissing me and trying to […]
Today I grieve for the innocent preborn children in Northern Ireland who will be put to death as a result of High Court Justice Mark Horner’s ghastly ruling — just because they may be conceived in rape or because a doctor tags them with the diagnosis of “fatal foetal abnormality.” Not only was I conceived […]
American Thinker published an article by Elise Cooper. Her title, The Rape Exception, got attention. The message was that Republicans should leave the exceptions in laws.

The Editors at National Review, not their real names, have decided that the pro-life candidates for president should back off from a 100% pro-life, no exceptions stand on abortion. I do wonder if we were talking about their demographic, if they would have the same opinion. For example, if there were open season on reporters […]
A reporter once asked me if Democrats for Life of America opposed abortion but allowed for the “usual exceptions” of rape, incest, and life of the mother. When I told him “no exceptions,” he asked why. I replied, “Because it is never not a child.” Never, ever, does the subject to be aborted turn into something […]
The morning of June 26, 1994, I woke up not feeling quite right. I was 25 weeks pregnant with the third of our four daughters. It wasn’t until later that evening when I started feeling the contractions that my husband, Forrest, took me to the hospital. When we arrived, the nurse tried to comfort us by […]
At the age of 16, just a few days before my 17th birthday, I went on my very first date. I was thrilled. He played football and was popular. We ate and saw a movie. I still had some time left before my curfew, so we drove around our rural area for a little while. […]
