Sun Trust Bank Reverses After Severing Ties With Benham Brothers Over Pro-Life Views
After getting national condemnation from pro-life advocates, Sun Trust Bank has reversed its decision to yank real estate contracts with the Benham brothers.
The pro-life brothers who were set to be the stars of the next HGTV reality television show "Flip It Forward" have had a refreshing response to the cable network cancelling the program because of their pro-life beliefs. They said they were not bothered by the show being cancelled because of their beliefs. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/sun-trust-bank-severs-ties-with-benham-brothers-after-pro-life-views-exposed/
Husband of 8-Month-Pregnant Christian Woman Sentenced to Death for Rejecting Islam Feels Powerless
The husband of the 8-month-pregnant Christian woman sentenced to death in Sudan for rejecting Islam says in a new interview he feels powerless to help his wife. UPDATE: According to ABC News, "So far the only concession granted by the Islamic court is to wait until Ishag gives birth before carrying out the sentence."
The woman, Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, is reported to be eight months pregnant. She was convicted under the Islamist-run government of apostasy (the crime of renouncing or insulting Islam) punishable by death in some Muslim-majority countries. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/husband-of-8-month-pregnant-christian-woman-sentenced-to-death-for-rejecting-islam-feels-powerless/
Newborn Baby Weighing Just 14 Ounces is Fighting for His Life
A newborn baby in California is fighting for his life after recently undergoing an emergency cesarean after suffering complications from an umbilical-cord prolapse.
Father James Maize told Sky News, "It was a choice between me and my wife if we wanted to try to save him or not and we decided that we wanted to try to save him; so, they rushed her back for a c-section. If he's a fighter, you know, we want him to fight and make his own decisions." http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/newborn-baby-weighing-just-14-ounces-is-fighting-for-his-life/
Duck Dynasty's Star on Daughter With Cleft Lip: "Who Cares What She Looks Like, I Just Wanted Her to Live"That moment when you meet your baby for the very first time is magical but also a tiny bit of a breath-holding experience: Will they have all ten fingers and all ten toes? Which parent will they look like? Will they look beautiful? It is just part of human nature to have those thoughts somewhere deep in your mind as you approach the delivery of your baby. A checklist if you will.
Missy and Jase Robertson of Duck Dynasty probably had a similar thought in their minds when they met their daughter Mia ten years ago. Except Mia wasn't "perfect:" she had a cleft lip. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/duck-dynastys-star-on-daughter-with-cleft-lip-who-cares-what-she-looks-like-i-just-wanted-her-to-live/
Thinking He Was Brain Dead Family Was Set to Give Away His Organs, Then He Held Up Two Fingers
LifeNews has repeatedly profiled cases where doctors may too quickly began cutting up patients who are not really dead to begin harvesting their organs for donations.
These kinds of cases have happened before, as supposedly "brain dead" patients have come back to life just before having their vital organs taken from them after prematurely being declared dead. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/thinking-he-was-brain-dead-family-was-set-to-give-away-his-organs-then-he-held-up-two-fingers/
Quintuplets Thrive After Mom Rejects Reduction Abortions
About a month ago, a leader from our chapter Medina County Right to Life told me about a local couple who were told to selectively abort or "reduce" their pregnancy by two or three children. Leann Alferio, the mother, was carrying quintuplets.
Medina County Right to Life put me in touch with Leann who told me her inspirational story about resisting this recommendation, and seeing all five of her babies through to birth. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/quintuplets-thrive-after-mom-rejects-reduction-abortions/
Second Set of "Mono Mono" Twins Born at Same Hospital Where Newborns Held Hands
Remember those special newborns who were born holding hands? The image and video of them went viral on th8e Internet in part because of how special it was but also because it was such a rare occurrence.
Now another set of mono, mono twins has been born at the exact same hospital. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/05/16/second-set-of-mano-mano-twins-born-at-same-hospital-where-newborns-held-hands/
