She Was Clinically Dead But Gave Birth to a Miracle Daughter
Melanie Pritchard was as prepared as you can be to deliver her second
baby. When she was pregnant with her first she had done all the research
necessary to find a pro-life OB/GYN and drove 25 minutes of her way
just to see that doctor.
Melanie Pritchard was as prepared as you can be to deliver her second
baby. When she was pregnant with her first she had done all the research
necessary to find a pro-life OB/GYN and drove 25 minutes of her way
just to see that doctor.
Her
unborn child’s life was of the highest value to her, and she wanted to
ensure that her doctor felt the same way. It turned out to be one of the
best and most important decisions of her life.http://www.lifenews.com/
In-Vitro Fallout: Donor IVF Teen Says “I Wish I Had Never Been Born”
This
story is so
heartbreaking and so indicative of the complicated ethical web the
fertility industry has spun. Gracie Crane is a UK teenage girl full of
angst, but not the kind that troubles most teenagers. She was adopted as
a “leftover” IVF embryo. Gracie keenly feels the loss of her genetic
roots, but the law in the UK prevents her from ever knowing who her
biological parents are. The pain is so acute, some days she says she
wishes she were never born. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

MLK Jr’s Niece Explains Why We’re Not “Free at Last,” Hint: It’s Not Why You Think
Martin
Luther King, Jr’s fight for civil rights is not over, insists his niece
Dr. Alveda King. Speaking at the 44th annual National Right to Life
convention in Louisville, Ky., King explained that she is continuing her
uncle’s legacy because the presence of abortion shows that not all of
us can enjoy that freedom for which he fought.

The Most Compassionate Haircut Ever
Sacrifice. It’s a word that has gotten lost in this self-indulgent world, where “It’s all about you” is a popular sales slogan.
So
what would you sacrifice for someone in need? The world spends billions
of dollars on hair care product to take care of their locks on a yearly
basis. But here’s a really nice haircut that didn’t cost much, except in
terms of what it sacrificed. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Sacrifice. It’s a word that has gotten lost in this self-indulgent world, where “It’s all about you” is a popular sales slogan.

Honest Liberal Admits Roe v. Wade “Hardly on a Secure Footing”
I’ve written before that it isn’t only pro-life scholars who believe
the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion
was fundamentally flawed: Honest abortion proponents agree. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
