Abortion Rate Drops to Its Lowest Level Since 1973 as More Babies Saved From Abortion
As the pro-life movement has passed pro-life laws nationwide in record
numbers, a new report released today shows the abortion rate has dropped
to its lowest level since 1973. That means more unborn children are
being saved from abortion than ever before.
The
pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, a former research arm of Planned
Parenthood, released the report on the abortion rate today — noting that
it declined to 16.9 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15–44 in 2011, well
below the 1981 peak of 29.3 per 1,000 and the lowest since 1973 (16.3
per 1,000). http://www.lifenews.com/2014/02/03/abortion-rate-drops-to-its-lowest-level-since-1973-as-more-babies-saved-from-abortion/
Husband Keeps “Brain Dead” Pregnant Wife Alive to Allow Son to be BornJust
one week after a national controversy in Texas regarding a husband to
allowed his pregnant wife to be taken off life support, thus killing his
unborn child, comes a similar case out of Canada. But, this time, the
husband involved is allowing his unborn child to live.
Robyn Benson was 22
weeks pregnant when she suffered from a brain hemorrhage. Her husband,
Dylan, went out to get some medicine for her headache and, when he
returned, Robyn was unconscious on their bathroom floor, but still
breathing. Although medical professionals made attempts to revive her,
doctors discovered blood had leaked in to Robyn’s brain and they told
Dylan Robyn would never recover. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/02/03/husband-keeps-brain-dead-pregnant-wife-alive-to-allow-his-son-to-be-born/
Told Baby Would Die, Mom Rejects Abortion: “No Way I Was Terminating My Baby”Rachel
Collins’ water broke at 20 weeks during her pregnancy and her doctors
advised her that an
abortion would be the best option. Physicians at Sutton Coldfield’s Good
Hope Hospital who advised her abortion said her baby had just a 10
percent chance of surviving.
“I
could feel my baby moving, he was alive, how could I get rid of him?”
Collins said. Despite the bleak outlook, Collins pressed on and she is
now the proud mother of a health baby boy named Alfie. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/02/03/told-baby-would-die-mom-rejects-abortion-no-way-i-was-terminating-my-baby/

Disabled 4-Year-Old Pleads for Belgium Not to Allow Doctors to Euthanize ChildrenA 4-year-old girl pleads with the Belgian Parliament in a new video to not legalize child euthanasia in Belgium.
As LifeNews has
reported, the Belgian Senate voted to extend euthanasia to children with
disabilities, in a move pro-life advocates worldwide had been fearing
would come and expand an already much-abused euthanasia law even
further. The final vote is expected soon and then the King of Belgium
must sign the law for it to go into effect. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/02/03/disabled-4-year-old-pleads-for-belgium-not-to-allow-doctors-to-euthanize-children/
As Abortion Rate Continues to Fall, Planned Parenthood’s Abortion Numbers RiseA
new study [PDF] from the Guttmacher Institute reports that the abortion

The
study found a rate of 16.9 abortions per thousand women of childbearing
age in 2011, though it did not probe the possible causes for the
decline.
