Melissa’s Story – Snatched from Death

Melissa’s story is from the other side of abortion.  Brad Mattes from Life Issues Institute http://www.lifeissues.org/ interviewed Melissa Ohden and aired her story on their website in January of 2011.  Melissa is a survivor of an attempted abortion.  This is her first person account on MP3 audio (about 30 minutes long). Melissa shares the events of her birth, her struggle facing the truth of that event, her search for her biological parents, and the birth of her own daughter.  Melissa’s adoptive mother also shares her personal experiences at first seeing Melissa as a tiny baby and the blessing that Melissa has been in her family’s life.  I encourage you to listen to the audio in its entirety.  It is beautiful to hear Melissa’s graceful words she speaks towards her biological mother.


Melissa began an organization called For Olivia’s Sake to educate people regarding the truth that there is an “intergenerational impact of abortion on men, women, children, families, and communities.”

May God’s grace flow down and cover us…
