| The Supreme Court’s historic decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade returns the right of individual states to regulate abortion. While this ruling will save countless preborn babies, the reality is that abortion continues to be legal across America. Many states will further restrict and even ban abortion, with limited exceptions. Others states will expand abortion and even promote themselves as "abortion sanctuaries." The Court’s ruling will almost certainly result in more women seeking out pro-life pregnancy medical centers, looking for a safe place, non-judgmental understanding and the assurance they’re loved as they evaluate their options. But this is where a wonderful truth comes into play: A woman considering abortion is much more likely to choose life if she is given the chance to see an ultrasound image of her child! That’s how it was for Marta. Facing an unexpected pregnancy, Marta was scared, confused and tempted to take the easy way out. Uncertain of what to do, she sought help at a local pro-life pregnancy medical center. An ultrasound confirmed she was pregnant. What Marta saw changed her life forever. "The moment I saw that heartbeat changed everything," she remembers. "That was life. That sonograph made it real . . . my daughter was there. And that’s how everything changed." Can YOU see it in the image above?! That’s actually Marta’s baby! It’s amazing what hearing and seeing that precious life can do to an abortion-determined woman. The proof of life is that powerful, that persuasive, that convincing. That’s why Focus on the Family is committed to making ultrasounds available to even more women seeking abortions.
