August 5, 2014/164 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

By now you have probably heard the story of baby Gammy, a child with Down Syndrome and other serious health issues (including a hole in the heart). Gammy’s biological parents are Australian, but he’s spent his entire life in Thailand. The Telegraph explains why: A Thai surrogate mother has received donations from across the world […]

Ableism Kills, Inside and Outside the Womb

June 25, 2014/97 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post by Rebecca Stapleford is part of our paid blogging program. Rebecca has three sisters, two of whom are also disabled. One of her significantly disabled sisters will eventually need a kidney transplant.] Many of those involved in the pro-life movement are aware of the incredibly high abortion statistics for those prenatally diagnosed […]

Dear Jezebel: Real friends don’t count chromosomes.

July 16, 2013/12 Comments/in Ableism, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

According to the Washington Times, there was a couple planning to abort their child diagnosed with Down syndrome. A priest made a deal with the couple–if he could find a good home for the baby before their state’s deadline for late-term abortions, the couple would not abort. The priest’s church reached out through Facebook for […]

News of the week

June 21, 2013/3 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

The House of Representatives passed the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. But unsurprisingly, it’s unlikely to get anywhere in the Senate. (Elections have consequences.) Also unsurprisingly, the mainstream media coverage has been pretty sad. Mormon SPL supporter Nathaniel Givens responds to Dan Becker, who proclaims the wrath of God on all incrementalist pro-lifers: “It has […]

Her Story: “I do have the strength to raise this child.”

September 19, 2012/3 Comments/in Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

According to Michelle at Big Blueberry Eyes, in 2006 an anonymous poster shared the following story on a “termination for medical reasons” board: I have lurked here for years, and although my story may not be welcomed with open arms, I feel compelled to share it none-the-less. Like many of you, I received a pre-natal […]

International Down Syndrome Coalition

July 11, 2012/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

The International Down Syndrome Coalition (IDSC) is a religiously- and politically-neutral organization dedicated to supporting individuals with Down syndrome and their families.  According to IDSC, When a mother finds out her baby has Down syndrome, she needs support and helpful information.  What sometimes happens, instead, is that professionals, family members, and friends will pressure her […]

Her Story: Glimmers of Justification

June 12, 2012/2 Comments/in Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

[As pro-lifers, we often find it difficult to comprehend how anyone could choose to kill their offspring. In this remarkably honest post, guest-blogger CP relates the new understanding she experienced through her second pregnancy.] I am currently pregnant with my second child and was recently offered the Downs Screening blood test. With my first child […]

It’s October! Be aware!

October 16, 2010/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

For some reason, it seems that a disproportionate number of causes have chosen October as their awareness month. We all realize that it’s breast cancer awareness month, of course. I also assume that you’re aware of the Susan G. Komen Planned Parenthood funding issue. The Bioethics Defense Fund recommends that you give to the National […]

Reflections on the 20th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act

July 26, 2010/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed by the first President Bush on this date in 1990. The ADA has undoubtedly done much to improve the lives of some disabled persons. It has improved access to transportation, jobs, and more: Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, an original sponsor of the legislation, introduced a […]
