Life After Being Aborted
Imagine you discovered that the only reason you are alive today is because the abortionist found your twin in the womb, but failed to realize you were there, too.
“A few months before my birth, my mother had an abortion,” said Jennifer Callendar of Texas, in 2019 testimony before Congress. A short time after the operation, her mother felt Jennifer moving and rushed to the doctor to find out she was still pregnant. Medical records confirmed that one baby had been aborted, and her doctor offered to repeat the procedure. Jennifer’s mother said no.
Born in 1980, two months premature and weighing slightly more than two pounds, Jennifer both survived and thrived. She is now a wife and mother who still wonders about the brother or sister she never met. “I feel like I miss him or her in a most interesting and spiritual way,” she relates in a 2020 Faces of Choice video, saying her heart aches at the thought that abortion robbed her twin of any say in the matter. And while she grieves that her sibling will “never get to experience life,” she thanks God for saving hers, “so that I can share it with others.”
