Shashana’s Story

Attikus—2015

Shashana, already a single mom, became pregnant. The man she was dating didn’t want to have any more children and pushed her to have an abortion. Knowing the father would not be around, Shashana gave in, visiting Planned Parenthood and taking the first abortion pill. 

 After she took the first pill, she sobbed. Regretting her decision, she called the Planned Parenthood clinic for help, but they told her nothing could be done and she needed to take the second pill. 

Determined for a solution, she read online that reversing the abortion pill was possible! After calling Heartbeat’s Abortion Pill Rescue Network, she was connected with a pregnancy help center. Shashana then met with a doctor in the community and began the reversal protocol.

That was almost four years ago. Thanks to her diligence, the pregnancy center, and the Abortion Pill Rescue Network, Shashana has a happy, healthy son named Attikus, a strong relationship with her mother, and works as a nanny which allows her to take her children to work. 

Thankful for the Journey: Sarah and Isaiah's Story

Isaiah — Born 2019

 At 26, Sarah was a single mother of three when she discovered she was unexpectedly pregnant. The baby’s father insisted she have an abortion. Caught in a moment of fear and pressure, Sarah took the first pill in the chemical abortion regimen.

But as soon as she got home, the weight of the decision overwhelmed her. “I couldn’t even look at my other children without breaking down,” she said. “I kept thinking, this baby deserves love just as much as they do.”

Determined to find help, Sarah discovered the Abortion Pill Rescue® Network, powered by Heartbeat International. She was quickly connected to a nearby doctor who began the Reversal protocol, and later, a local pregnancy help center for continued support. Within days, her baby’s heartbeat was strong, and Sarah’s hope was restored.

“I wanted to try whatever I could to reverse the worst decision I had made.”

Sarah gave birth to a healthy baby boy named Isaiah in January of 2019, and she says that the experience completely changed her life.

“I have never been more grounded in my faith, nor blessed.”

In her journey, Sarah’s faith has been renewed and strengthened. Her home is now a place of peace and joy, rooted in prayer, guided by faith, and sustained by trust in God’s providence.

The blessings continued. In 2020, Sarah was honored as a recipient of Heartbeat’s Unplanned Movie Scholarship, an award celebrating courageous moms pursuing their education. She completed her training as a licensed massage therapist. Today, she owns her own massage therapy business, is fulfilling her passion, and providing for her family.

Now, Sarah is building a life rooted in hope and strength. Her son, Isaiah, a lively, adventurous, and joyful little boy, fills their home with laughter and energy. He adores his older siblings, loves school, and has a deep passion for sports, especially basketball. With a ball in his hands and big dreams in his heart, Isaiah already talks about playing in the NBA one day. His life is a beautiful reminder that one courageous choice can have a lasting impact on future generations.

Isaiah started Kindergarten in 2024! Watch Sarah share how God has a purpose and plan for each precious child:

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,
“plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Misdy’s Story

Tig —Fall 2016

Misdy found herself in a situation where the only “practical solution” pointed to an abortion. She had six kids, a troubled marriage, and had just started a new job to help make ends meet. The news of a pregnancy was overwhelming and she justified taking the abortion pill. 

 As soon as Misdy took the first dose of the abortion pill regimen, she knew she had made a horrible mistake. Thankfully, she found Heartbeat’s Abortion Pill Rescue Network and was able to make a second choice to save her pregnancy. 

And, yet, the fight was not over.

Then, at 19 weeks her baby was diagnosed with Trisomy 21—Down syndrome, the most common chromosomal condition in the U.S. When Misdy’s doctor suggested an abortion, she broke down and cried. 

“My first thought was, ‘You don’t know how hard it’s been to stay pregnant,’” she wrote. “How could I even think of doing it now? He was a baby with hands and feet and a heartbeat that I got to see once a week on ultrasound.”

Rejecting his recommendation, Misdy chose life again! 

At 31 weeks, Misdy went into preterm labor and gave birth to her baby boy, Tig Lee. 

“I know now that Tig was sent here to me for a reason,” she said. “He is the light and the best baby ever. He puts a smile on my face every single day.”

Kristina’s Story

Christian—August 5, 2016

Twenty-five and single, Kristina was not ready to be a parent, so she took the abortion pill. After talking with her mother, she realized she made the wrong decision and sought hard to find a way to reverse it. After traveling to multiple emergency rooms desperate to find a medical professional who could help, a doctor finally agreed to try the Abortion Pill Rescue Protocol. “I can’t promise this will work, but I will prescribe you the progesterone and I really hope for the best.”

“At that moment, the doctor saved my baby. And my life!” Kristina rejoices.

After many doctor visits, many questions and concerns, Kristina gave birth to a beautiful healthy boy named Christian!

“Words could never describe the love and life this reversal has given me. Thank you to all the people who work to provide this information. They are truly angels.”
