Creative Minority Report: The Baby Gianna Story Part II
Here's part II of the ongoing story from the Archbold brothers;
Rebecca had been on the fence for months over whether to abort her child as her boyfriend wanted her to. But through Jessica Chominski’s efforts and prayers, along with volunteers at the crisis pregnancy center, Rebecca made the brave decision to keep her baby. Unfortunately, Rebecca’s boyfriend upon learning that she’d chosen to keep the baby kicked her savagely and repeatedly in the stomach.
While treating her, doctors discovered fetal abnormalities in the 18-week-old fetus, including diseased kidneys and underdeveloped lungs resulting from a dearth of amniotic fluid. Despite being in a Catholic hospital, the doctor stunned them by saying that since the baby had no chance of living he recommended an abortion.
Jessica was stunned but managed to remind him that they were in a Catholic hospital but the doctor, according to Jessica, merely said that while he couldn’t do it there, Rebecca could come to his office in Abington where he could arrange it.
“'Utter frustration', 'Disappointing', 'Infuriating'” are still some of the only words Jessica can use to describe her feelings regarding the doctor's suggestion in a Catholic hospital.

What a beautiful and heart wrenching story. Reading the part about the doctors who were pushing her to abort the baby reminded me so much of the doctor who tried to convince me to abort my last child, my only son. There was no reason for it, he just thought that I shouldn't feel "burdened" by another child (he was my fourth). I can't imagine life without my son and always wonder why this doctor was so pushy.
