A little over 3 years ago, my OBGYN offered me an option to abort Maverick because of his birth defect. I was stunned, not only because I was at 20 weeks and an abortion meant destroying the little human being growing inside me, but because he acted as though the offer was as common as 'coffee or tea?' I was sickened through every fiber of my being - especially after learning, in my subsequent research, that many women choose to abort 'other-than-perfect' babies.
Defiant, I accepted the challenge that nature had given me. I felt to my core that my child deserved every opportunity I could give him, even if it cost me everything. The choice I made is not for everyone. It is definitely not for the weak. It is not for the selfish-minded. It is not for the faint hearted.
Here's to all the moms out there that fought for their children. You are amazing. You are strong. You are blessed in ways most humans cannot comprehend. Carry on ladies. Carry on.
