Incredibly moving story about a Pro-Life mother

Amy Welborn points to this article about a mother who chooses to give birth to both her twins: one healthy, and one anencephalic (born without a developed brain). The article is extremely moving (I'll be honest - it brought me to tears) as it describes the grace, suffering, pain and beauty experienced by everyone surrounding the birth.

The article is very long, so one might want to skip to the paragraph that begins, "Danielle was afraid to fall in love with her son, but he had such a way about him" etc.

1 in 10,000 births in the U.S. are anencephalic. I can only imagine how many of these "little angels" are aborted. Anyone contemplating this decision should read this article. Just look at that picture.

There are several webrings of parents who have lost children to anencephaly, as well as an Anencephaly Support Foundation for parents to help them choose to bring their child with anencephaly to term.

Oremus pro innocenti!
