Jovanda is a mom of a one-year-old who discovered she was pregnant. Overwhelmed by the idea of having to take care of two children, she began to seriously consider abortion. She knew what to expect from an abortion since she had already had two. She made an appointment with CompassCare to confirm her pregnancy and
The 2019 New York legislature is promising to be the most pro-abortion in U.S. history.

The test was positive. Simone stares at the home pregnancy test, not sure how to feel. She wants to be happy but instead she feels a combination of cautious hope and overwhelming dread. With a not yet one-year-old and another young child at home, Simone fears life could become overwhelming but she loves children. On
Having the most pro-life acting President since Roe v Wade is heating up the abortion battle. Fear of overturning the 1973 Supreme Court decision is driving liberal states to fever-pitched lawmaking frenzies.
