Casey’s Story
We met Casey when her only child had left for college. Alone and attempting to re-define her life, Casey fell prey to a lifestyle she knew was a dead-end, but with all the wrong influences, she was unable to stop herself from spinning out of control. On a course of chaos, Casey realized she was expecting. The father of the child coerced her into scheduling an appointment for an abortion. Just hours before the scheduled abortion procedure, Casey picked up the phone, searching for any way out of the situation she felt to be hopeless. That’s when she found Pregnancy Aid Clinic. She came in that day, unsettled and desperate for options. Our team validated pregnancy and performed an ultrasound exam where she was able to see the baby alive and well. That’s when Casey’s world started to change. Breaking down in tears with the PAC nurse, Casey knew at that moment, seeing that baby in utero on the video monitor, that she couldn’t go through with the abortion. Our nurse told Casey: “You’re going to save this baby, and this baby is going to save you.” That’s exactly what happened. |

LaMonte and Casey: Changing the World
Casey recalls the prayer bracelet our staff gave her that day in the Clinic to remind her that she is not alone. She knew, in her heart of hearts, that the life that resided inside her was created in the image and likeness of God. Casey is a devoted and grateful mom, participating in our earn-as-you-learn-program by attending Pregnancy Aid Clinic parenting classes which has yielded her little Lamonte 600 diapers and almost all of his first-year baby clothes. Mostly importantly, Casey has developed a strong prayer life and is committed to becoming a strong role model for her son.
