Being Pro-life Isn't Only About The Babies.

When I get into a conversation with pro-aborts at Dr. Emily's Abortion Clinic and they bring up that we don't care about the women, only the unborn, it saddens me. They're assuming, and they're assuming wrong.

You can see it on their faces. These women don't have hope. When these women walk past us toward the clinic, it is so important within those few short moments to share the ways that we can support them. We can give them information helping them with morning sickness, prenatal care, adoption options, financial aid, housing, jobs, counseling, anything. We're tring to make it as easy as we can for them to keep their baby. We're trying to give them hope and a confiedence that they had lacked before.

Pro-aborts rag on the pro-life movement saying that we don't truly care about the women and aren't compassionate toward their situations, and sure, some pro-lifers are only concerned about the unborn. But we're here to say that there are two human beings involved, and two souls. You cannot save the baby without first saving the mother.
