Webb says her experience suffering a miscarriage at five months has given her "a testimony" that she can share with clients considering ending a pregnancy. "By working here, I feel like it's like a blessing. Because I can minister and talk to people in all different kinds of ways, other than just abortion." (AP Photo/Allen G. Breed)
