Melissa is a sought after speaker, author and advocate. Her experience of surviving a saline infusion abortion and being united with many members of her biological family initially led her to this life's work, but connecting with other abortion survivors, mothers, and families impacted by failed, stopped and reversed abortions is what has truly ignited her passion. Melissa is the author of the 2018 Christianity Today award-winning, You Carried Me: A Daughter's Memoir, that vulnerably shares her journey of adoption, finding out her story, and ultimately healing and growing to a place of forgiveness and love, embracing her story and her purpose. Melissa's second book, Abortion Survivors Break their Silence, with Cindy Lambert, the best-selling author of Unplanned, gives the reader an opportunity like never before--to see through their eyes, and hear through their words, the experiences of multiple abortion survivors--most unknown to the world--and women who have experienced a failed, stopped or reversed abortion. Their voices need to be heard. Not only for their sake. But our culture's. Abortion Survivors Break Their Silence stirs the heart, challenges readers, and humanizes the sanctity of life in concrete and transformational ways that Melissa believes will break the secrets and shame that entrap so many people and so many families, and ultimately lead to compassion and understanding for ALL who have been impacted by abortion and been voiceless for so long. She is the Founder and Director of The Abortion Survivors Network, the only support and advocacy organization for abortion survivors and their families world-wide. Melissa and her team have connected with nearly 700 abortion survivors as of October 2023.
