description: Are you, or is someone you know, being touched by an unplanned pregnancy or infertility? Have you, or someone you know, been considering adoption? Do you find yourself or others struggling with pro-life and pro-choice issues? Every day in America, over 4,000 pregnancies are terminated. Each year, two to three million couples actively seek to adopt a child, but only 50,000 to 75,000 babies are available for adoption. Mike and Annie Sheaffer were one of those couples attempting to adopt but without success. Unexpectedly, they uncovered a middle ground between pro-life and pro-choice camps. They traversed the rocky road through open adoption and opened their hearts and home to two babies, while embracing an extended family relationship with the birth parents. They also founded America's Crisis Pregnancy Helpline through which thousands of distressed and questioning women have been empowered.
