A miraculous story of how this child's life was saved, and a testament to how life has been cheapened.

In the story, the TV channel doing the story arranges for Morgan Hill to meet her rescuer and the medical personnel who cared for her. It was great she was able to meet them, but I also found it disturbing how it was pretty transparently played for the sake of ratings. The news itself, especially TV news, is becoming more and more like reality TV, and the news media even crassly turn their coverage of tragic events and the problems of their on-air personalities into advertisements. Meanwhile actual news gets squeezed out or distorted, "feelings" and liberal personal opinions get injected.

Why would a woman be thrown away and left to die, while a baby was meeting it’s rescuers?

An amazing story. Thanks for posting! :)

I look at it as a testament that there are still some good out there. Unfortunately, you cannot know what is good, without understanding what is bad.

Also, I give kudos to you for going through all the media garbage to get to the little bundle of the story. :)

Wonderful story. I think you’re a bit too harsh on the local media for their portrayal of the event. Local news stations are not anywhere near as sophisticated as national networks. I thought they did a nice job of surprising Morgan Hill with her rescuers and at the end, highlighted her new focus on the Safe Haven options for pregnant women.

Can’t they rescue a baby without throwing away a woman and leaving her to die?

What amazes me is that these news organization have to much sympathy for a Birth+1 baby and virtually no sympathy for a Birth-1 baby.
