Husband Raises Enough to Keep “Brain Dead” Pregnant Wife Alive, Allow Son’s Birth
Dylan Benson has been the subject of international attention as he
raises money to cover his “brain dead” pregnant wife’s medical bills so
his unborn son can be born. Today, Benson hit his fundraising goal so he
can cover the enormous expense associated with saving his son’s life.
Just one week after a national controversy in Texas regarding a husband to allowed his pregnant wife to be taken off life support, thus killing his unborn child, comes a similar case out of Canada. But, this time, the husband involved is allowing his unborn child to live. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Planned Parenthood President Finally Admits It’s “Proud” to Do Abortions
Planned Parenthood almost never uses the a-word. No not that profane a-word, the word
“abortion.”
Planned Parenthood almost never uses the a-word. No not that profane a-word, the word
“abortion.”
The
nation’s biggest abortion business almost always couches the term
abortion in flowery language of women’s health or women’s rights or
reproductive health — all things that sound great and no one opposes,
except they are merely euphemisms for Planed Parenthood actually does,
killing little baby boys and girls in abortions. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
No More Girl Scout Cookies for Me Until They Stop Supporting Planned Parenthood
In
5th grade, I really wanted to be a Girl Scout like my friends Lorie,
Rita and Joann (all white). One day a week, my friends would wear their
green dresses with the dark green sashes to school–I wanted so badly to
be a Girl Scout.

One
evening, my mother took me to a Girl Scout meeting to join. I remember
walking in with excitement, all smiles. The leader saw us come in but
refused to speak to us or acknowledge us in any way. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Baby Zion, Diagnosed With Trisomy 18, Lived 10 Days But Will be Remembered Forever
So often when a baby is diagnosed with a condition like Trisomy 18,
doctors will encourage parents to consider an abortion. But Robbyn and
Josh Blick, when they found out their baby had the condition at 20
weeks, they never gave aborting little Zion Isaiah a second thought.
In an extensive interview with The Blaze they talked about their faith in God and dedication to life: http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Medical Miracle: “Ghost Baby” Born Without 80 Percent of Her Blood
Jennifer
Juarez felt her baby stop kicking just three weeks before her baby was
due. Her gut told her she should get to a hospital right away and she’s
now very glad she followed her intuition.
That action saved
baby Hope Juarez’s life and now the little child is a healthy 6-week-old
infant. But her life outside the womb didn’t start off so well, as KABC
reports (and video below): http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Jennifer

Topless Feminists Assault Spanish Cardinal Before Mass to Protest for Abortion
As
the Spanish government pushes a pro-life proposal to roll back some of
