I was so scared and my ex wouldn&#8217;t even let me tell my friends. I felt so alone, but when I finally told them, I got so much support, and my best friend even went with me to tell my parents. Sometimes you need that buffer. \u2026 I would at least listen to your baby\u2019s heart beat. That literally chanced my mind completely. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>I even went with my ex-boyfriend (the father of my daughter) to the first appointment to get an abortion. But as soon as I heard her heart beat, I knew I couldn\u2019t do it. My boyfriend pressured me, but I knew that no matter what, even if I gave her up for adoption, at least she would be alive. \u2026 I didn\u2019t want my mom to know either, and I hid my pregnancy from my parents actually till about a few weeks ago. (I\u2019m 6 months pregnant now).<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t go well, so I understand how hard it is. I\u2019m not even on speaking terms with my parents. But at least I know that my daughter will have my love no matter what. My ex is barely in the picture, only coming around when he feels like it. There are places that can help you. My advice would be to at least hear your baby\u2019s heart beat. Believe me, it is probably the most amazing thing I have ever experienced and the reason I am now going to raise my daughter on my own without my parents or her dad. \u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>5) A Short Life Span:<a href=\"http:\/\/liveaction.org\/blog\/times-writer-thanks-rick-santorum-for-his-daughters-smile\/\"> Bella Santorum<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_119\" style=\"width: 419px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-119\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-119\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/bella-santorum-300x179.jpg\" alt=\"Rick and Bella Santorum\" width=\"409\" height=\"244\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-119\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rick and Bella Santorum<\/p><\/div>\n<p>During the 2012 presidential campaign, Americans got to know Bella Santorum, the young daughter of Senator Rick Santorum. Many parents abort children with Bella&#8217;s diagnosis. And yet, Bella&#8217;s beautiful face caused many to take pause and think about the &#8220;moral implications&#8221; of abortion. <em>TIME<\/em> writer Joe Klein explained:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>They [Rick and Karen Santorum] have spent the past three years caring for their daughter Isabella, whose genetic defect, trisomy 18, is an early-death sentence. \u201cAlmost 100 percent of trisomy 18 children are encouraged to be aborted,\u201d Santorum told Schieffer.<\/p>\n<p>I am haunted by the smiling photos I\u2019ve seen of Isabella with her father and mother, brothers and sisters. No doubt she struggles through many of her days \u2014 she nearly died a few weeks ago \u2014 but she has also been granted three years of unconditional love and the ability to smile and bring joy. Her tenuous survival has given her family a deeper sense of how precious even the frailest of lives are.<\/p>\n<p>All right, I can hear you saying, the Santorum family\u2019s course may be admirable, but shouldn\u2019t we have the right to make our own choices?<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I suppose. But I also worry that we\u2019ve become too averse to personal inconvenience as a society\u2014that we\u2019re less rigorous parents than we should be, that we\u2019ve farmed out our responsibilities, especially for the disabled, to the state\u2014and I\u2019m grateful to Santorum for forcing on me the discomfort of having to think about the moral implications of his daughter\u2019s smile.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>6) &#8220;Enough Kids&#8221; and a Young Mom: <a href=\"\/news\/singing-sensation-kimberly-henderson-publicly-tells-her-abortion-story\/\">Vaida Everly<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_61041\" style=\"width: 470px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61041\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-61041\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-16-at-9.22.14-AM1-300x169.png\" alt=\"Kimberly Henderson with Vaida\" width=\"460\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-16-at-9.22.14-AM1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-16-at-9.22.14-AM1-700x393.png 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-16-at-9.22.14-AM1.png 767w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-61041\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kimberly Henderson with Vaida<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Vaida&#8217;s mother, singing sensation Kimberly Henderson, recently shared her decision not to abort Vaida.
