With a fetal indications patient — if she refers to it as her baby, I’ll refer to it as her baby. If she’s named the baby, I’ll use the baby’s name too…

I would say that most of these patients do decide to see and hold their baby, although many of them have a hard time dealing with the idea at first.

We’ll take remembrance photographs, we’ll give them a teddy bear, the footprints. I mean, imagine being six months pregnant and finding out your baby’s missing half its brain, and you’ve got this nursery you’ve painted at home, you’re so ready – I don’t want them to go home from the procedure with absolutely nothing to remember and honor the baby, and its birth.

Today we feature Rachel Bush, a fellow of Students for Life Wilberforce (and a mentee of Jill’s) who is a journalism major.  Rachel made a video for one of her classes at the University of Texas. The video highlights the story of Lizzy, one of the young moms at Annunciation Maternity Home…

The students were able to all join together for the first time to meet, network, and get training on pro-life apologetics, leadership, and activism led by SFLA staff, Mike Spencer and Jay Watts of the Life Training Institute, blogger Jill Stanek, Jeanneane Maxon of Americans United for Life, Seth Drayer of Created Equal, and public speaking trainer Dan Couladis.

After a wonderful summer with few work obligations, but mainly pure, sweet [baby] Mila time; my maternity leave [was] over. It is a day millions of women across America experience every year. It is however, a day I [found] nerve-wracking, and bittersweet… a bit like the first day of school….

I am ready to return to work, but know the first summer I spent with my Mila will be the most precious of my life.

Karrie Brown has Down Syndrome and autism. In the first week after her birth she suffered kidney failure and her respiratory system crashed. And then there was heart surgery. Though she recovered, her doctor was still not encouraging in her prognosis.

Well, look at her now! The 17-year-old high school junior from Illinois is an honor student who volunteers at the library and the YMCA. And that’s not all.

Karrie ‘s mom Sue took a photo of her in her outfit for the first day of school and posted it on Facebook. They got positive feedback and set up a page of Karrie wearing more clothes from the store Wet Seal, which assured them that if they got more than 10,000 likes in the next few days, they’d have a pleasant surprise for them.

The goal was easily reached, and mother and daughter were flown to Los Angeles for a photo shoot and, of course, Disneyland.

Here’s a report from KMOV, proving that “dreams really do come true”

• Reggie Littlejohn of Women’s Rights without Frontiers addresses claims that China’s one-child policy has ended as “false.” This is the 33rd anniversary of the barbaric policy.
• Politico is claiming that the pink running shoes-wearing, peace sign-waving, late-term abortion defender from Texas, State Senator Wendy Davis, intends to run for governor next year:
  

  State and national Democrats have wooed Davis over the past few months for the uphill campaign against Republican state Attorney General Greg Abbott, the presumptive GOP gubernatorial nominee.

As reported by Fox4 Fort Myers/Naples, Florida….

A Cape Coral High School teacher made a mysterious discovery upon returning to his classroom after summer vacation.

Robert Snyder opened up a cabinet and found “a human specimen in a mason jar filled with formalin, inside a brown paper bag.”  The preborn was reported to be 16 to 19 weeks since conception, and was a white female.

Any guesses as to how and why someone would have put her there?

No, I’m not one of those women that’s like, ‘Oh I must procreate!’ So, no. I think kids are a product of love, so if you find the right person and you want to have a family with that person then that’s when the time is right…

I don’t think if I’m 50 and single – I’m not going to go and [have a baby] by myself.

Editor’s Note (9-30-13): The use of this video as an informational piece in no way means that we endorse the use of IVF. IVF is not a pro-life procedure. Hopefully this will put to rest any further questioning on the matter.

Tuesday morning on TODAY, contributor Jessica Menkhausen had eggs removed live on the program. When mixed in a petri dish with her fiance Derek Manion’s sperm, she will have “viable embryos” inserted in her uterus  live on Friday.

This was Tuesday’s segment on TODAY:

Today’s Dr. Nancy Snyderman, present in the operating room – and apparently lending endorsement to this procedure which needlessly takes so many preborn children’s lives by its nature – is a eugenic abortion advocate.
