The truth about abortion is heart-piercing. Every baby who is aborted is a human being who never had the opportunity to live out their calling. For Denisha Workizer, this chilling truth rings true: her mother attempted to abort her twice, but despite these attempts, she was born full-term in July of 1976. Denisha didn’t find out about her mother’s attempted abortions until she was 42 years old, and the truth shocked her. She felt hurt, betrayed, and traumatized. But now, thanks to God’s grace and His healing spirit, Denisha is a national speaker and the founder of Reclaimed Story. She shares her unique and life-changing perspective as a survivor of abortion and a participant in the Faces of Choice campaign, which aims to humanize babies in the womb by putting a face to each person who survived an abortion attempt. “Culture begins to shift when hearts shift first,” Denisha says.
