    What a good example of how to grieve the loss of a child after birth together as a family.

Review Of The Christian, Pro-life Movie — “Like Arrows”

Image
   MOVIE FOUND ON NETFLIX “ Children are the living messages that we send forth to a time that we will not see” “LikeArrows” is a life-affirming movie in so many ways. It starts off with two university students — Charlie and Alice — discussing their pregnancy.  She’s about 12-13 weeks along and because of her upbringing, she has reservations about bring a baby into the world. “ I don’t know how to be a mom. I don’t want to mess up some poor kid’s life.” “ We already screwed up the plan. This wasn’t supposed to happen first” . . .” I’m going to start my Spring semester with a baby.” Supportive Charlie, reassures her that — in spite of her upbringing — everything is going to be just fine. That she  was not like her mom, and besides, he liked how she turned out.  After the ultrasound Alice crosses paths with a woman who she confides in saying that the ultrasound made her realize how much she really did want him here, but she didn’t know what to do when

An Adoption Story : Birth Mother to Toby Mac’s Twins

Written by birth-mother Jina It was September 11, 2001, when a tragedy and a miracle would occur on the same day. I was living with my mother in Norfolk, VA with my 2 children. My mother woke me up, telling me that a plane had just hit WTC building 1. I was not surprised by this news, but I got out of the bed and went into the living room and watched Good Morning America, who was covering the story. We sat there glued to the screen for the next several hours, too horrified to move. After the final plane went down, I left my mother's house, and walked the 15 blocks or so to my sister's apartment, and banged on her door. She had slept through everything and had no clue what was happening. I turned her television on, and as she got caught up with the days events, I contacted the guy I was seeing at the time, and told him I wanted to see him. Hearing how upset I was, he came as quickly as he could. We left my sister's house, and walked to the beach in Ocean View, where w

Mom from Newfoundland shares photos of her son stillborn at 19 weeks

Written by his mom, Ashley , who is also admin at Life Defenders. From the moment a mother finds out she’s pregnant, she anticipates the day she’ll get to hear her baby’s heartbeat and see him or her on the ultrasound screen. It doesn’t matter how many times she gets to see her baby, each time is just as special as the one before.  My second ultrasound was filled with silence and concern. When the doctor first told me something was wrong, my initial thought was “the baby must have a deformity or something”. That day I was supposed to find out the sex of my baby,  never in a million years did I ever think I would be told that he didn’t make it. According to the doctor, he passed away a couple of weeks before my ultrasound. My doctor tried to explain, but to be honest, I couldn’t quite understand it. I don’t think she understood herself. She told me that she found pockets of fluid on his arms and chest. She believed that my body created “new” antibodies to attack my baby
