Woman gets pregnant with brainless baby, has it anyway

[quote=Blog]Welcome!
Thank you for being here and for all your thoughts and prayers...
My name is Myah. I'm 23 years old and a single mom to a very special little girl.
When I was 19 weeks pregnant, I was told that my baby had no brain. This condition is known as "anencephaly." I was told that my baby was only alive because she was attached to me, but that she couldn't survive on her own. The doctor said that I could continue the pregnancy safely, but that my baby would die shortly after being born. Or I could choose to terminate the pregnancy then, which would mean being induced at 20 weeks and letting my baby die without ever seeing or holding her (I don't even want to know what they do with babies in this case). Well, to some people this would be a difficult decision, but it wasn't for me. I knew there was nothing to gain by terminating the pregnancy and I already loved my daughter more than anyone else in the world. Even if she was unconscious like the doctors said and lived for only a few seconds or minutes --even if she was stillborn --it was worth it to me. And so we began our journey...
Today, as I type this, Faith is 20 days old. Apart from a sterile dressing on her head that needs to be changed once a day, Faith lives a completely normal life. She isn't suffering or sickly, like you would expect. With no tubes and no machines supporting her life, she continues to thrive. She seems to function at the same level as any "normal" baby. In fact, she may be a little more advanced for her age. How many babies smile before they are born, start cooeing at one day old, and can sit up by 5 days old? I'm just saying!
I hope that by sharing our story, we can shed some light on this condition they call "anencephaly." It may seem all doom and gloom if you get this diagnosis, but trust me... there is more hope and joy in store than you could ever imagine. I know that first-hand! You can read all the text books and medical journals you want, but the truth is revealed in babies like Faith. This is real life, not a text book. When you see the pictures and watch the videos, you can't deny that this life is precious and worth protecting.

You heard me.
[quote=Wikipedia]Anencephaly is a cephalic disorder that results from a neural tube defect that occurs when the cephalic (head) end of the neural tube fails to close, usually between the 23rd and 26th day of pregnancy, resulting in the absence of a major portion of the brain, skull, and scalp[1]. Children with this disorder are born without a forebrain, the largest part of the brain consisting mainly of the cerebral hemispheres (which include the isocortex, which is responsible for higher level cognition, i.e., thinking). The remaining brain tissue is often exposed—not covered by bone or skin.[2][/quote]
Sounds nice, huh? This means that the baby is basically brainless, it hasn't got any cognitive abilities whatsoever, except some to keep it alive and have it eat (unfortunately). An anencephalic baby can't actually be considered human, since it's got [i]no mind[/i]. It's a lump of meat that eats and breaths and can't even express the pain it's most likely experiencing all the time. On the other hand side, can it feel pain?
So this woman had the brilliant idea not to have an abortion after hearing her child would be born with no brain. She has the kid, calls it Faith and spents the day forcefeeding her child and taping it's eyeballs inside her skull.
[quote=Blog]She is still blinking them but it's as if the inside of her top eyelids are falling out. The right eyelid needs to be "stuffed" back under and held closed but I managed to prevent the left eyelid from drooping out. As soon as I saw it start to swell up I taped it closed and you know what... it sounds crazy and looks odd but it actually worked. So now that the swelling is down the left eye still looks normal on the outside, but she has little eyepatches (well, non-stick pads that we tape over them) on both eyes just to keep them from getting any worse, and obviously to hold everything in on her right eye.[/quote]
The child is now about 9 weeks old and will hopefully die sooner than later.
This disturbed woman get's a lot of hate mails too, but she sure knows how to defend herselve:
[quote=Blog]To all the haters...
Satan really hates it when God shows up and shows off, doesn't he? And I guess, so do atheists. But I'm told that demons scream their loudest when they're on the way out. So to all of you who sent me hate mail and to all of you who are posting cruel things about my daughter on the internet, I hope your demons are on their way out... You can't expect to say such things about one of God's precious little children and then go unpunished, so I would repent if I were you... or you're in for it. You people posting vile things on the internet about my daughter, you are IN for it. There is a place for people with such hatred and perversion in their hearts, and believe me, it's not a place where you want to go. But that is where you are heading. In a nutshell, Jesus is your only hope. Or you're in for a good long (and well-deserved) burning. That being said, God Bless you all! Even you incredibly evil, demonized people :) P.S. See an exorcist ASAP[/quote]

You misslead me! :barf:
that's nasty
she should have had an abortion but shows she has a heart to care for it instead of getting rid of it.
Oh my god that picture is gross. Who would want a brainless baby anyway?
Also: [img_thumb]http://imgkk.com/images/rin8f79.gif[/img_thumb]
Oh wait she's a crazy christian bitch that makes sense now.
That's nasty and amazing at the same time.
Fucking hell. This woman is insane, I mean I know it's her child and shit but come on!
Holy shit. Those google images are fucking disgusting
Wait. So that child has no brain? So it's a zombie?

i thought that too until i read her response to the "haters"
[QUOTE=TopSpecRP.com;14788891]Wait. So that child has no brain? So it's a zombie?[/QUOTE]
no it's dead.
Sometimes people shouldn't be allowed to choose. Here for example they should have killed/aborted the baby with or without her consent. I'd charge her with torture on an infant.
It is her child. You can't hate her for accepting how her child is.
Why isn't it dead? It's got no fucking brain.
[QUOTE=Owner2;14788893]i thought that too until i read her response to the "haters"[/QUOTE]
Actually you have a point, she sounds crazy
I woulda aborted, this is one of the cases where I consider abortion ok.
[QUOTE=PaChIrA;14788920]It is her child. You can't hate her for accepting how her child is.[/QUOTE]
You can hate her for torturing (keping it alive) the baby though.

I find it a lot more heartless that she had the baby, but that's maybe just me :geno:

So a brainless meatsack can be considered a child?
This was obviously god's will. He's just deceiving the wicked, like the Bible says.
Gross. It's not even a real baby, it's like a meat doll, only it'll die soon.

No, that baby will be successful.
:fuckyou:

She has to be lying.

By a religious woman with primary instincts and hormones raging?
Yes.
that looks like a spore creature
This is cool. I'd have had the baby, just to see how long a brainless child can actually survive.
I fucking hate facepunch
[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;14789053]She has to be lying.[/QUOTE]
She is. Even if it's an extraordinarily intelligent vegetable, it's still a vegetable.
[QUOTE=LLL;14788922]Why isn't it dead? It's got no fucking brain.[/QUOTE]
Even if it doesn't have majority of brain, it still can maintain bodily functions. Your big part of your brains do calculations, arts etc. The small part at the end of spine actually maintains your breathing, moving and such.
