Shauna Amick has always been a pro-life advocate for more than years. She currently works in radio marketing for Joni and Friends, and before that she worked for a crisis pregnancy center.
In 2005, Shauna was surprised to learn during her third pregnancy that her child would have Down Syndrome and a life-threatening heart defect. Shauna’s doctors immediately and repeatedly recommended termination, which she refused to do, relying upon pro-life verses she had learned from the Bible.
Today, Sarah is a healthy, spunky teenager. She’s happy, full of God’s love, and is the first to volunteer to pray at church. Her language skills are poor, but people are blessed by her prayers. Shauna praises God for Sarah’s Down Syndrome because that’s who He made Sarah to be and she brings glory to His name.

This topic is close to my heart as I have a 15 year old beautiful daughter. She was born with Down Syndrome, and had a hole in her heart. Through her, God has taught us true meaning of love, patience, compassion, and perseverance. God truly doesn’t make mistakes

Thank you focus on the family for this broadcast. I just found out yesterday my 6th child has down syndrome and severe heart defects. Abortion was the first thing offered. My husband and I wouldn't consider that as an option. There are just so many unknowns right now and it's nice to hear someone else's story.

I hope Focus can use it's platform to encourage all Christian Schools and teachers in public schools to advocate for inclusive practices in the classroom. Especially people who are pro-life need to advocate for the inclusion of all children in schools, churches and activites. When you are continually told that the schools, churches, and children's activites "cannot support her needs" it's discouraging and absolutly unjust. It's society that has the need.

Neither inclusive nor exclusive is the solution.

How tragic she was immediately offered an abortion..... Jesus thank You for blessing & gracing this momma to choose life in a society where life isn't valued. Thank You for being her Father, Lord, Savior, Strong Tower...only Your Presence & only a living relationship with You empowered this momma to choose Your ways (life) over her feelings & fear.

I don’t give forgiveness, only. Jesus. Those without sin, cast the first stone. I lay my stones down. I will always be your mother. That is my job. I love you. God’s blessings.

As Christians, we are commanded by God to forgive. Jesus said that if we don't forgive, our Heavenly Father can't forgive us.
