Toddler with Birth Defects 'Incompatible with Life' Defies Odds in Venezuela

[Fatusbeergutus]

Very cruel. The mother never gave up and didn't care what people say. But what about that poor soul that must now live in such a disfunctional body.

[Wonderland]

The doctor told this woman to terminate it for obvious reasons and she decided to bring this poor child in this world. Downright cruel and selfish if you ask me. Its a suffering for that little girl.

I can’t help but to think that it is cruel to keep a child you know will suffer horribly and most likely die without being able to experience much life at all… i don’t know this situation intimately, but I know abortion is a mercy for many like this.

[scoon]

This child must be in so much pain. I can't imagine that experience. Poor child.

[christybrandt]

I'm sorry but it's times like these where an abortion is in order... How cruel to make her live like that!!!

[kecola]

But what kind of quality of life is this for a child?

[adrianadrian]

i have mixed emotions for this... it's really amazing and inspiring yet so horrible if you think about this child's future

[lily-joyheal]

Why the hell would you put your own child through that

[luispp]

Dont want to sound rude but i would have terminated the birth thing I wouldn't want a little girl like that to suffer and lets be real here she wont have the same opportunities that other kids have but i hope she lives her life beautifully

I have mixed emotions about this, she is inspiring and really strong, but if I had a child who the nurses said that then I would have terminated the pregnancy. It’s not fair on the little girl. She’s growing up with criticism from around the world, friends and everyone. She is probably going through a lot of pain, not being able to actually talk ect. I feel like it’s just torture having her only because the mother wanted a baby. Sadly she probably won’t live for much longer with the infirmities, and while she was living going through pain ect. It’s not fair on her. And I kinda think it’s selfish the mother still had her. That’s only my opinion tho, if your opinions different then that’s your opinion.

Why bring the baby in the world to be ridiculed and bullied if you really cared about your childs well being you wouldve terminated

[rauldylanhernandez]

I feel bad for her because who she look but it the inside that cont

[supercorp]

She didn't give upon her daughter world best Mom.

[melindam]

Poor child i wonder how long can this baby stay alive

[sashagarcia]

idk i wouldn't want my child to suffer like this never having a normal life. god bless them

[andygirl]

Yes never give up on your child or children, she's still a human being

[shellos]

I think this is just awful and horribly selfish on the parent's part! It's absolutely disgusting to knowingly birth a child so deformed and to continue to keep her alive no matter what....just because science allows it to happen. Shame on the doctors and the parents!

[iloveabi]

why bring it in the world when you know for a fact she’ll be bullied and in pain.. they don’t care for her quality of life..

[deplorablegal]

I just don't think I could do that to another human.... what a struggle that little soul has to deal with because of her mom and dad... I feel bad for her.

[almondkissed]

Personally I wouldn't even let my child live like that . Never have a normal like but be bed bound smh
