'Pregnant at 16' is a deeply personal, informative and impassioned reflection on the outcome of the author’s life as a result of her choice to carry and keep her baby when she became pregnant as a teenager, in 1974.Lori’s conversational style of writing eases the reader into her story effortlessly. Her narrative voice is friendly and charming, allowing the reader to develop a sense of personal rapport with the author. Her passion and understanding for the pressures of teenage life are evident in her writing, and she creates a vivid portrait of the teenage social climate that rings true even today. She handles difficult topics - teenage pregnancy and abortion - with tact, and her experience in the medical field brings interesting insight to an often-veiled issue. Her genuine, heart-felt prayer is that 'Pregnant at 16' will soften hardened hearts toward young, unwed pregnant teenagers and their precious unborn children, and ultimately rescue the unborn from destruction by abortion. Thirty-five years after her personal experience with teen pregnancy, Lori is now 'Honey' to one, 'Momma' to three, 'Gramma' to four, and remains her daddy’s 'Little Papoochnick.' Lori and her husband, Joe, enjoy easy river kayaking, mountain hikes, casual evening walks, and entertaining as many guests as they can possibly squeeze into their home.
