Kathy Folan was just a junior in college when she was raped and became pregnant. Despite her initial hurt and shame, Kathy knew the value of her preborn son's life and began looking to place him with an adoptive family.

Along came the Sullivans, a devout Catholic family from Maryland who was recommended to Kathy by her local priest and the adoption agency.

Together, they named the baby Nathan, and 6 days after he was born, the Sullivans took him home.

Today, Kathy and her son Nathan have a beautiful relationship that they are incredibly thankful for. ❤️

"The biggest misconception about abortion from rape is that it will heal the woman from that rape... But what would really happen is that you would live not only being raped, which is traumatic, but with the trauma that you destroyed a human being."
