The Lord bless and keep all three!

Doctors are body mechanics. That’s all. Their opinions outside of medicine have no more value than a welder’s or a waitresses’ or anyone’s.

[Fungi]

Read about Nick Vujicic and his story. No arms or legs.

[Hambone 1934]

In the early 1900, there was the BLACK STORK....Dr Harry Haiselden thought disabled children were happier dead...The nazis said the same thing ,only added more groups...Then euthanasia came in the picture and now, we have doctors “”condemning”” parents for giving their child a chance at life......

[Leaning Right]

Christ would agree with the parents, and disagree with the doctor.
That’s the bottom line.

[Morgana]

Funny no one ever asked the disabled kids if they would be happier dead.

Most of them want to be alive and not disabled.

Sure the sickness with out killing the person.

“It wasn’t me. It was the two armed doctor.”

[grobdriver]

You must think of the child - kill it.

Time for a new doctor!

[packagingguy]

Was he the NASCAR mechanic? If not there was a guy who worked on race cars and drove his own classic car with his feet since his arms were missing.

[Varda]

Understand that what the doctor is advocating is taught in medical schools as "ethics".

"With scientific advances comes a societal expectation that one can have “the perfect life,” not just for one's self, but also for one's offspring. Thus extinguishing the imperfect life, at its earliest or later stages through physician-assisted suicide, becomes an accepted recourse."

[LittleBillyInfidel]

I’ve been blessed with two great personal physicians my entire life, but the vast majority I’ve interviewed for television are emotionally detached or, likely, autistic.

[StAnDeliver]

Look at that kid, you know he's a winner.

That doctor needs a smack upside the head, this child will have two perfectly-functioning exoskeletal arms before he is 18. Bank on it.

[ro_dreaming]

It would be awesome if Elon Musk helped the kid out with some robotic arms or something...

[Morgana]

That would be cool after all they helped Steven Hawking speak.

[sauropod]

God bless that couple!

[Menehune56]

What an inspiring story, thank you for that.

[joma89]

The doctor of death speaks. I am not sure how any doctor is truthworthy.

[ought-six]

“The Lord bless and keep all three!”

Amen.
