-------------

There have been no reports of abortion from recipients of the donations and each baby was born into a family that desperately wanted her/him. Please see the pregnancy history page for more information.

Some statistics on abortion in the USA:
 

  • "Thirty-seven percent of women obtaining abortions identify as Protestant and 28% as Catholic"
  • "Twenty-two percent of all pregnancies (excluding miscarriages) end in abortion"
  • "Nearly half of pregnancies among American women are unintended"
  • "From 1973 through 2008, nearly 50 million legal abortions occurred"
  • "one-third will have had an abortion during their life time"

"women, in consultation with their physician, have a constitutionally protected right to have an abortion in the early stages of pregnancy—that is, before viability—free from government interference. "
