Abortion won’t affect me…or will it?

I was recently made aware of a celebrity’s comment that when she was 16 abortion was her only choice and decades later she says she has no regrets because it was the best thing for her. I considered what she had to say and, to be honest, I was troubled by the fact that she made it sound so simple.  Although the celebrity was giving her personal opinion, that opinion could lead women astray from the seriousness of the aboriton decision. It is not to be taken lightly. 

At Hope, we take abortion seriously. It is an option in an unplanned pregnancy, but can carry serious consequences that need to be considered.  From our experience with women who have had an abortion, it is a decision that most of them wish they had taken more time to learn about and consider in light of other options. At Hope, we provide complete information about abortion (to include the types of procedures, the development of the fetus, and the physical and emotional risks to the mother) and allow you the time you need to make an informed choice you can feel good about.

If you or someone you know is considering abortion, please don’t just take a celebrity’s opinion or allow yourself to believe it’s a quick fix, but find a place that can give you medically accurate information in a caring, no pressure environment.  If you or somoeone you know is thinking about an abortion, please call us at (435) 652-8343.  Take your time and learn as much as possible because the decisions you make today do impact your physical and emotional health in the future.

Don’t allow pop culture to define your beliefs or make your decisions for you because… You Are More.
