Mike’s caller explains that she was raped and didn’t get an abortion despite being told that she should consider getting one.

GALLAGHER: Cindy in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. Hi Cindy.

CALLER CINDY: Hi. 48 years ago when I was 18, I was a victim of criminal sexual assault and all this happened only 18 months after Roe v. Wade. At the time I was literally homeless, motherless, jobless, penniless, a teenager impregnated by rape and I have an incurable rare physical disability. All the reasons they were telling me I was the perfect candidate for an abortion, but I gave birth to my baby girl and now she is happily married wife of 18 years, a mother of 5 children, a college graduate, and a very productive citizen of Minnesota. And I’m grateful. I am a grandmother. I want you to know it all works out. She is made in the image and likeness of God, our creator.

GALLAGHER: You are so right Cindy and it makes me think. Perfect timing after the last caller who said yeah but if a woman is raped and brings the baby to term, she is reminded of the rape for 9 months. Here you are 48 years later celebrating the life of your precious daughter.

CALLER CINDY: My inner healing began with her first smile and first tooth, and her first words, and her first steps. My life was about Jennifer, not about the rape. I want people to understand that.

GALLAGHER: And honestly I think you’d be remembering for the rest of your life if you made a decision to end Jennifer’s life.

CALLER CINDY: Yeah, I have no regrets and a clear conscience.

GALLAGHER: Of course you do. God bless you Cindy. You made my day. I can’t think of a better call to commemorate this March for Life today in Washington D.C.
