They said the scan was 99 per cent reliable and recommended abortion. We were distraught. I asked for further investigations, but the doctor said he was rarely wrong

Hopefully this story might spur some to consider trusting God over the State-sanctioned, professional murderers.

Reminds me of the stupid a$$hole nurse-midwife who told us our first son had an 80% chance of being born with Down Syndrome.

Scientific instruments and people who believe in scientific "consensus" are a dangerous combination.

Thanks for posting. God Bless the family.

Consultants at St Mary's Hospital in Manchester had recommended Heather should abort her child early in her pregnancy

St. Mary's Hospital??? Recommending abortion????

Consultants at St Mary's Hospital in Manchester had recommended Heather should abort her child early in her pregnancy in March

Disgusting detail. Needs to be renamed 'Peter Sanger Hospital', not after the Blessed Mother.

[I'm ALL Right!]

A friend of mine was told her child would be a Down’s Syndrome child...the doc was wrong. What emotional turmoil he put that family through!!!

[MacDorcha]

Wonderful news!

I asked for further investigations, but the doctor said he was rarely wrong.

And how would he know? How many young mothers actually stand up to him to prove him wrong? My guess is that his proven wrong record just hit 100%.

Reminded me of a ‘B’ movie, Basket Case (1982),

Plot Outline: A young man carrying a big basket that contains his deformed Siamese-twin brother seeks vengeance on the doctors who separated them against their will.

God bless this baby and his family for not aborting him. May he live a long productive life. As a Dr. perhaps who ENCOURAGES women to have and love their babies no matter what.

My cousin and her husband were told with 100% certainty that their son would be profoundly deformed and would die shortly after birth. They were told to have an abortion to avoid the anguish of giving birth, but couldn’t bring themselves to do it, thank God.

Today their son is a healthy college student. He was born with absolutely no defects whatsoever, and has been completely healthy his entire life.

Pregnant women are so vulnerable to fear that they can be pushed into almost anything. A certain hospital has become notorious for “browbeating” women into aborting their supposedly severely disabled children. I have a strongly pro-life friend who was almost intimidated into killing her unborn child, despite her convictions, but persevered to bear a wonderfully perfect child. When my friend couldn’t think of anything else to say to the doctor who was insisting she must abort, she said, “My husband would never allow this.” The doctor replied, “Your husband doesn’t have to know.” It really makes you wonder.

What a precious baby

[stevio]

Our last born, we were told he had some kind of cysts or something on his spinal cord and we “should consider taking action” because there is a good chance he will be born with staggering brain damage. He’ll be one next month and he’s a healthy, happy baby boy(Thank you Lord). That was an unnecessarily stressful time for us. Sometimes they think they know too much and we all need to trust God more.

I thought that this might be of interest.

A woman I work with has four children. For all four pregnancies, the doctors predicted the baby’s gender. In all four cases they were wrong.

If the medical profession would stop treating childbirth as a disease, we might all be better off. Medicine, for all of its tests and fancy equipment, really has little understanding of the human body and how it works. And their knowledge about reproduction is probably less than 0.
