Baby Saved From Abortion When Mom’s Smart Phone Guided Her to a Pregnancy Center Five years ago, following the birth of her baby girl, “Tasha” made herself a promise, “Never again.” The pregnancy had been exceedingly difficult, the delivery was terrifying, and the risks were too high. “I experienced serious health issues that made that pregnancy extremely challenging,” Tasha says, as she thinks back on the days leading up to her daughter’s birth.
So when Tasha discovered she was pregnant a second time, her thoughts immediately turned toward those frightening nine months when she didn’t know if she would live or die. “My anxiety about my health was definitely a concern,” Tasha says. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/04/01/baby-saved-from-abortion-when-moms-smart-phone-guided-her-to-a-pregnancy-center/

Her Mom Aborted Her Twin But Changed Her Mind and Spared HerIn 2012 the movie October Baby was seen on big screens across America. The story of a girl named Hannah who discovered her life long medical conditions were linked to surviving a failed abortion was an eye opening hit.
The story was based on the life of Gianna Jensen, a pro-life speaker whose cerebral palsy came as a result of surviving a late term saline injection abortion. Audiences found the film compelling because many had never heard the story of an abortion survivor. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/04/01/her-mom-aborted-her-twin-but-changed-her-mind-and-spared-her/
