Neurologist Says Jahi McMath is “Alive” and “Awake;” Videos Show Her Responding

A source has sent me a declaration under penalty of perjury that Shewmon signed on October 3, 2014, testifying that Jahi McMath is not only alive, but now also awake!

When I Was Pregnant After Rape, I Wanted to Kill the Rapist, Not My Baby
I’m a lesbian birthmother out of rape — now there’s something you don’t hear every day! I’ve lived a life many cannot fathom. First, I was born with a serious genetic condition called “congenital adrenal hyperplasia,” which untreated could have killed me, as it did my sister Rachel. By grace, I survived untreated.

Millions of Pregnant Women Do This Every Year, But She Said No and It Changed Her Life
The Federalist featured a piece by D.C. McAllister, titled “Navigating The Waters Of A Broken Life: My Abortion Story.” From the title, one may think or fear that the author had chosen abortion, and the piece reads very much like a story which will keep the reader on the edge of her seat.
