Testimonies

“I can’t do it again! Oh goodness, I can’t have another procedure! What am I going to do? I can’t have a baby right now, I don’t even have health  insurance. How could I let this happen?” 

Olivia felt overwhelmed with fear. When the positive result appeared on that pregnancy test, she felt as though her world had just crumbled. She did not plan to have a baby right now, she wasn’t financially stable. What would Zeke think? Would he want this? Would he even stick around? Would he make her have another abortion after the last procedure caused her so much pain and grief? Were they even going to have a future together? 

Olivia fought through tears and anxiety to do an online search of what she could do. She found Your Options Medical and reached out for an appointment. During the appointment, she shared her hopes and fears of the future. The ultrasound showed a small baby with a strong heartbeat. Olivia shared a bit about her past abortion experience and how she did not know if she could even handle going through that again but she was so scared of becoming a mother. Zeke couldn’t come to the appointment but he had told her he would support whatever decision she made. 

With time and support, Olivia and Zeke made the decision to have their baby and parent together. They knew it would be hard, but they could do it together and with the support of their community including Your Options Medical. A few months later, they welcome an incredible baby boy, Elisha, into this world. 

Because YOU support this ministry, we are able to see lives spared and families created. Thank you for giving! 

“What? We’ve been so careful, I’ve never missed my birth control. How could this have happened?” 

Luna had always been an intelligent woman. From the time she was a girl, her parents had raised her to be smart and work hard. That had all paid off when she go into one of the most prestigious universities in the country. How could she possibly tell them that she may not graduate because she had fallen pregnant? What would Mitchell say? They hadn’t even been together a full year yet and he was a medical student? What could they do? 

Through conversation, Mitchell agreed to support Luna in her decision but also shared that he would be okay with having a baby with her right now. The timing may not have been great, but he loved Luna and wanted a future with her. “So this may not have been how I would have planned it but even if it’s a little out of order, that’s okay. I love you, Luna. I want to build a life with you.” Mitchell helped her schedule an appointment with Your Options Medical to figure out how far along she was. Luna was still thinking about getting an abortion. 

During the appointment, Luna shared her concerns. She was grateful for the incredible support Mitchell had shown, but was still nervous to talk with her parents. She was still thinking about getting an abortion and never telling them.  

With the help of Your Options Medical and the support of Mitchell, this strong couple chose life for their baby! Luna told her parents and much to her surprise, they were thrilled. Mitchell and Luna were married just a few months later and Luna was able to find a way to continue her classes at the university so she could still graduate on schedule. Just a few months later, their baby girl, Janey, was born. 

YOUR giving provided this sweet couple the opportunity to be equipped to choose life for their beautiful little girl. Thank you for giving! 

“Not again! The baby isn’t even one yet! I can’t possibly be pregnant, we were only together one more time. I don’t want to be connected to him anymore! Why did this happen? How could this happen?  

Claire had been with the father of her baby for several years, but they recently broke up. She loved being a mom to her sweet baby, but struggled to make ends meet for the two of them. Did she make the right decision breaking up with her child’s father? Should they have stayed together? Could they have worked things out? Now she might be having another of his baby’s? This was feeling like a nightmare. 

Abortion didn’t feel right, but did she have any other choice? Your Options Medical appeared in Claire’s search for help. After the first appointment, she felt beyond conflicted. Could she have this baby? Maybe should could figure out a way. But what kind of life could she even offer this poor baby? 

As time went on and with support, Claire decided to have her baby! She gave birth to a delightful little girl, Cordelia. Life has not been easy, but with support Claire is raising her beautiful babies. Thank you for giving to support mother’s like Claire and giving her hope.
