 👿Conflict😇

We had a terrible day. It was one of terrible sadness and a feeling of helplessness. The situation happened with a couple with a young baby and a baby on the way. The mom didnt think she could handle another baby. The father said he was willing to do whatever was needed to support the family. He`d told her exactly this. Unfortunately the mother to be was already inside the Planned Parenthood facility. 

Two of us were talking to the father. While he comforted his baby.He was taking care of his baby and going back and forth into Planned Parenthood to try to get his partner to come out. He went in three times. Our security guard coached him on what to say. He came out each time without her. He continued to talk to her on the phone and this gave me an opportunity to talk to her.  Nothing worked. Twice she told me she'd meet me on the sidewalk. She did not. 

At a certain point she told us that she didn't think the staff would let her leave. I responded to this by saying  “just like they say there, you body your choice, you can leave anytime. Finally she announced to us that her water broke. She was 17 or 18 weeks pregnant when she chose to abort her baby. 

The father was visibly shaken by this information. He started crying. Their baby started to get fussy. The father started asking questions and wondering if maybe his baby was able to feel what was going on. I couldn't answer. I handed him the information for the post abortive hotline and Rachel's Vineyard. We were all consumed by our own sadness separately and together. . I think we all felt the life of this baby being sucked away. Some days on the sidewalk are horrible. This was one of them.

 🙏Truth Talk Things dont always go well on the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood. Today was a glaring reminder. The truth of the reality of the definition of a bad day as an advocate needs to be known. It is the only way we can begin to  win the war. It is my opinion that until one actually sees the truth of evil it is hard to believe it exists. The abortion industry is pure evil disguised by a vale of deception. It is an industry that makes money by killing the next generation. It`s an industry that destroys families. People who are pro choice choose, yes, I said choose, because “choice” is what the pro abortion movement is all about, to look away from the truth of what is happening. Death by abortion is happening every single day. Appointments to abort a baby at 16 weeks gestation are happening every day. In fact I watched it happen today.  The mother in this situation is 19 years old. She has a job at Amazon and is so conscientious about health that she wore a mask while talk

  The Pass 🙌 I met Anna at the Fresno Fair where Right to Life was hosting a booth. She was working there and stopped at our booth. She was looking around. She lingered, in my opinion, just a little too long. She was asking lots of curious questions. My pro life advocate intuition started to work so I asked her what was going on and if she was pregnant. Anna said she was. She thought she might be about four months pregnant. I invited her to sit and talk. She told me her story as it stood. She is a mother of two already and the father of the children is involved. He's leaving the military for medical reasons and looking for his next venture. He doesn't think this is a good time to have another baby because they already have one that is only seven months old. She knows she wants to keep the baby because she believes in choosing life but she is nervous and feels unsupported. We talked about all of the resources that are available to her and all the things Right to Life will do to

❤❤  Easy Access Death  All is well doesn't always end well. This was a vividly demonstrated truth last week when we had a mom choose life after speaking with several of us for days straight, wanting originally to choose life but ultimately chose to take the abortion pill to abort her child. A horribly hard situation for all of us. Four of us poured our hearts out, offered every resource we could think of and expressed our compassion and support only to have her tell us that she thought it was best to abort her baby. Early in the days she told us she couldn't imagine life without her baby and in fact pictured herself in an SUV with all of her kids and she and her partner couldn't imagine giving the baby away so adoption was off the table. This gave us hope that she was turning the corner completely. We asked her to throw the satanic pill out. We believed that if it was harder to access an abortion there would be more time to gain this mother`s trust.  In the end we lost the
