Testimonial: our first APR client of 2020, we have had four since then.
"I'm very happy and grateful that the abortion pill rescue was available for me when I decided that I had made a very terrible mistake in attempting to abort my baby with the chemical abortion pill. It was around 9 pm on a Saturday night, and I had already taken the first pill four hours earlier at Planned Parenthood. I started weighing every possibility for who my baby could've been, what my baby could've looked like, and all the God pulled me through with faith, hope and a new life! memories that would be erased from this earth if I continued the abortion. I panicked, and immediately called the emergency line of Planned Parenthood to ask what I could possible do to reverse the pill and the woman on the phone was distracted and laughing with her own children in the background, and then she told me that there was nothing available and that the abortion pill was something of a myth and that it was not completely backed by science. I was devastated, I felt humiliated, and I just felt a sense of impending doom and fear closing in on me. I prayed to God to help me, I asked Jesus to guide me in this situation and in a matter of minutes I found the abortion pill rescue website and decided to call and a nurse answered me right away. She assured me she would do whatever it took to help us, She then connected me to a doctor in the area (our medical director, Bryan Casey) who was able to help me start the reversal process. He sent out the first set of pills to a pharmacy close by, and I took the pills immediately right in the store. I felt so happy. I felt that if this worked God would be saving not only my baby but myself as well. In the following week I attended an ultrasound at CrossRoads Pregnancy Center. The ladies who helped me were so caring, so welcoming and completely without judgement. I saw my tiny baby for the first time, and got to hear the heartbeat. I was so grateful! The sound filled me with a sense of amazement! The following ultrasound the baby was jumping around in the ultrasound! I am so happy with the choice I made that night to pray and trust in God no matter what. The abortion was a decision I had made out of fear and confusion but God pulled me through with faith, hope and a new life! I wish that many more women and their babies will saved through this wonderful and inspiring process."
