Heck - Hillary did that years ago (well, girl by genetics; if not present appearance).
Seriously: I hope the baby's gonna be okay.
Nice to hear this happened in VA, where the law is automatically pro-life.
A lot of people think that VA has antiquated laws, but can you imagine this happening in New York or CA?

Show's you the grace of God is alive and well, and all the more reason to keep up the good fight against the culture of death promoted by the likes of NORAL, NOW and the other leftists.
This is a perversion of the natural order of things by a selfish family and their deceased daughter.
Prayers sent from TX.
Absolutely heartwrenching. Prayers for all in this family.
According to U.S. law the mother had no right to life should her NOK claim she'd want to die under these circumstances; and the baby wasn't supposed to be human until months later. As it's written, God will not be mocked.

Susan Torres's cancer spread from her brain to her other vital organs. (AP)

She had hoped for a girl, and at 8:18 a.m. yesterday Susan Anne Catherine Torres was delivered by Caesarean section at Virginia Hospital Center. The newborn weighed 1 pound, 13 ounces and was 13.5 inches long. There were no complications during delivery, and the baby appears healthy, said her uncle, Justin Torres. The hospital confirmed the birth and said the baby is being monitored in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Meanwhile, Susan Torres's husband, Jason, who has slept by his wife's side for three months, who has decorated her room with pictures, held her hand and talked to her, faced the moment he knew would come.
Sometime -- perhaps today or tomorrow, if it hasn't happened already -- his wife's body, full of cancer, will be unhooked from the web of machinery that has kept it going for the past 13 weeks and allowed to die, an end that Jason Torres, other relatives and a team of doctors all agreed was inevitable.
Even as the baby continued to grow during the past several months, Susan Torres's cancer -- melanoma -- grew as well, spreading to her lymph nodes, lungs, liver and other vital organs, relatives said.

Doctors and family members did not specify why the decision was made to deliver, but that her 26-year-old body had held out this long was beyond what anyone had hoped for in the beginning.
Susan Torres found out she was pregnant in February, and she and Jason, who have a 2-year-old son, Peter, were overjoyed.
Although she had a malformed freckle removed from her arm when she was a teenager, doctors had given her a clean bill of health.
In April, she began complaining of headaches and nausea, symptoms that doctors chalked up to her pregnancy. Then, on May 7, propped up in bed eating dinner, Susan Torres lost consciousness.
At the hospital, doctors told Jason Torres that his wife was brain-dead with no hope of recovery but that there was a slim chance they could keep her body going with machines for the sake of the fetus, which was about 15 weeks old at the time.
Prayers for the child, mother, and family.
Amen.
I pray for little Susan tonight, that she might be the emblem of love to her father and to her family - the physical reminder that love truly never dies.
May God bless this little child, even as her mother be blessed in Heaven.
