Translated from ACI Prensa and reposted with permission. A few days after the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) dismissed two constitutional controversies which sought to reverse the controversial Mexican Official Standard NOM-046, which allows abortion in cases of rape for minors, the Conference of the Mexican Bishops (CEM) reminded everyone that […]
For the past few months, my heart has ached for the millions of babies whose lives have been stolen from them, for the intense pain they each have experienced and for the choice they never had. This is why I feel I must now speak out. Abortion is an issue which touches me deeply and […]
We want to believe so many things in life, like the IT things, don’t affect us, that we can move beyond them or through them and they will not determine our well-being or our happiness. The IT, can be many things — natural disasters or disasters of our own making, although most of the time […]
In the past few days, I had thousands of abortion proponents come on my Facebook page accusing me of being pro-rape because I actually love my life. Valuing my life does not make me pro-rape! I was raped myself when I was in law school. My abuser broke my jaw and I lost my front […]
I recently testified before both the Ohio Senate committee and House committee in support of the Heartbeat bill as someone conceived in rape and as a pro-life attorney.

Save The 1 is a global pro-life organization of over 600 of us who were conceived in rape like me, or conceived in incest or sex trafficking and mothers who became pregnant by rape, […]
I’m sharing our story in memory of our precious son Ollie, born sleeping on October 31st at 22 weeks gestation. My Facebook post about the value of his life went viral, and I’m hoping that by sharing his story further, he will continue to save lives. First I’ll share the original Facebook post that went […]
I am a mom of two. The beautiful girl who made me a mom is almost 6 years old. That same beautiful girl was conceived in a rape. As soon as I saw the positive pregnancy test, I thought abortion was the answer. Abortion is “always the answer” when a woman is raped, isn’t it? […]
Sleep well little ones. As I tucked you all in to bed tonight, I began to wonder what the world will look like for you as an adult. I’m concerned that it will still be a place where there is no legal protection for babies like you, but even worse, that there won’t be as […]
