Court Lets Obama Admin Force EWTN to Obey HHS Mandate
Just days before the Supreme Court is scheduled to consider the biggest
case against the HHS abortion mandate that is a part of Obamacare, a
lower court is forcing the Catholic television station EWTN to obey it.
U.S. District Court Judge Callie V.S. Granade of Mobile, Alabama issued an opinion yesterday denying EWTN Global Catholic Network protection from the government mandate that it must provide coverage of contraception, abortion-inducing drugs and sterilization as part of its employee health care coverage. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Doctors Went to Remove Her Ovaries After Massive Stomach Pain and Found a 9-Pound Baby
Stories
of women who are pregnant and didn’t know it are ubiquitous — and there
even a television show devoted to the entire phenomenon. But a story
out of New Zealand takes this to another level.
Rebecca Oldham had stomach pain for months and underwent many tests to determine the cause without anything conclusive. She ultimately had three scans, two blood tests and six pregnancy tests but none revealed the pregnancy so it was eventually decided her ovaries were responsible and doctors decided removing them was the best course of action. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

She Was a Surrogate Mom, But Then They Asked Her to Have a Sex-Selection Abortion
I am not a fan of surrogate mothering. I am particularly opposed to
commercial surrogacy, as it reduces gestation to a matter of breeding
and can, in
particular, lead to the profound exploitation of the surrogate
mothers–known in the dehumanizing industry parlance, as ”gestational
carriers.”

The Daily Mail has a story about a surrogate who had two feel-good experiences, but then got out of the trade because she came to see its dehumanizing aspects. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Former Abortionist Describes Late-Term Abortion: Limbs Grasped and Removed Piece by Piece
Dr. Anthony Levatino is a pro-life physician from New Mexico but, before having a change of heart on the issue of abortion he was an OBGYN who also performed abortions.
Levatino did as many as 1,200 abortions — some of them after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Then, after his daughter died in a tragic automobile accident, he re-evaluated his position on abortion and stopped doing abortions. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

“He Dropped Me Off at the Abortion Clinic and Never Returned, Now Every Day I Mourn My Baby”
“Since You Asked,” I gather, is a kind of advice column found at www.salon.com.
Since no one would come away thinking this is a home for card-carrying
pro-life activists, it is to Cary Tennis’ (and Salon’s) credit that he
answered a letter from a deeply unhappy woman under the headline, “My
Abortion Traumatized me: The father of my child dropped me at the clinic
and disappeared. Every day I mourn.”
