Satan is now in control here and in much of Europe. The rest of the planet is still free, for now.
The pro abortion lobby always relies on a “hard case” scenario to manipulate the emotions of the reader. They never talk about the ones who get abortions so they will look good in a bathing suit for the summer.
It is called life.
What I do not understand is wanting to kill your children.
I would have given anything to be able to hold my babies even for a moment.
I am pro-life. My grandson and his wife had a baby, Sara. She was born with very little brain matter in her head. She lived “if you can call it that”, for 4 months. On life support, unable to regulate breathing, with the only hope would be life on a ventilator at home. No crawling, walking, talking, going to school et al. The kids finally pulled the plug on her and let her pass into Gods hands.
The point is, this was genetic. If the kids want to have another child, they would have to have tests on the baby while it is growing in utero. If the same tests show the same genetic condition, they would either go through the hell, or have an abortion. Of course they could always just not have children.
All of you people who judge a family for aborting a child deemed to be terminal at birth, hold a mirror up to yourself. WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENT? He who is without sin, cast the first stone.
My granddaughter had a baby who died after 4 months on life support. Never having the ability to process the necessary functions for the definition of self sustaining. I wrote about it on another post. The point is not that the baby was born or died. The point is, during labor, which commenced when the mother went into violent seizures, hitting her head on the bathroom sink on the way down. She was in a coma when the baby was delivered. My grandson did not know if she would live for a week. My granddaughter didn’t know she had the baby. The child had very little brain matter. The loved her unto death, and grieved heavily.
They want to have other children. They are told that it was a genetic defect, and that there is a 1 in 5 chance any child born to them will be born the same way. If they are to have another child, they would need constant monitoring of the baby and mother. If the same conditions reveal themselves during testings, they have a choice. What would you do?
Never have another child?
Have tests and make sure the baby is healthy?
If the baby is found to have the same genetic problem do you......
Abort it?
Carry it to term, and run the danger of the granddaughter dying, and the new baby dying after inability to draw air naturally, or lives for 4 months on a ventilator without ever opening his or her eyes?
Wasn’t the best choice for her child though, was it.
During my fifth pregnancy, an advanced sonogram series indicated a two-vessel umbilical cord; this is typically an indication of severe genetic abnormalities.
We were already struggling from the medical bills resulting from my daughter’s premature birth four years prior.
The medical staff pushed us to terminate. I turned to my husband and asked if he was ready to go bankrupt taking care of a special needs child. His answer? “God gave us this son. We will sell it all if we need to.”
So we prepared. I did not know if my child would live outside my body, but I already loved him and took every day one step at a time.
Sixteen years later, I have a beautiful, highly intelligent son, my family is intact, we moved into a bigger nicer house, and God allowed us to flourish.
Does he have a genetic defect? Yes, NCCAH and Asbergers. Did it destroy us? No. We trusted in God and it brought us closer, made us stronger. I could not imagine this world without him in it.
GOD BLESSED YOU!!! You TRUSTED in HIM!!! HE WILL CONTINUE HIS BLESSINGS!!
And GOD gave you a GREAT HUSBAND!
Yes. I am truly lucky to be his wife.
