About forty years ago my wife’s niece had a premature baby with lots of problems. The Drs said to “pull the plug” as the child had no chance of survival.

They refused and worked and worried with her for years.
Today that child has done well, worked and performed on Broadway, worked for a major Talent agency in NYC and today teaches Performing arts at a major University in OKC.

So much for “no chance”.

That story hits home with me.

When I was born, the Dr told my parents I had just a 10% chance of surviving.
