Baker told ABC News, “I knew how important it was going to be to write that letter before Emmy was even born.”
The Sanford, Florida mom, with the help of her 15-month-old daughter, finally dropped the letter in the mail at the end of May to the doctor who she said delivered her daughter’s prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome. She then shared it on the Parker Myles Facebook page, where it’s been shared thousands of times.
The doctor, Baker said, suggested she terminate her pregnancy. Even after she refused, she said she continued to feel pressured.

We are heading for the day "I suggest you terminate" will become "you will terminate" this
ReplyDeletepregnancy. Wake up people!
so if society kills all of the sick, diseased, inept, mentally-unfit, and we are only left with the healthiest of people, then we would not have the wisdom of stephen hawkings, the music of ray charles, or the many lessons of hellen keller. if it is normal to be born, however you are, then it should be normal to accept it. i see a day where science will make the beings of life on this planet one day and we will have lost humanity at it's most basic function. live and let live. namaste.
