This from the U.K.'s Daily Mail:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/health/healthmain.html?in_article_id=437236&in_page_id=1774
"Born only 21 weeks and six days after conception, Amillia Taylor weighed just under 10oz and was only 91/2 inches long."
Well it seems that, increasingly, medical technology (of course combined with a fighting spirit) is making harder and harder for 'Pro-Choicers' to argue that these fetuses are not viable human beings. Thought that article would greatly interest anyone who cares.

That's about the same as my beautiful niece! I call her the miracle child!

Life is sacred. I don't know if any particular argument will change someone's perspective but every little victory is important.

That really is a miracle!
By comparison, my niece was born at 26 weeks and she was 1 lb 13 oz. I've seen a picture of her being held in the palm of someone's hand!

It's just sickening to think that in some cases of abortion, a child about that old will be discarded of so easily and without objection.
But to update, the baby is going to stay in the hospital.

They say it's only as a precaution. With any luck the baby will be home soon anyway.

When it does go home, it will be on a monitor and oxygen tube for months!
