People often ask me why I’m pro-life.

It’s because of little girls like Juniper.

You see, progressives love to talk about loving science and facts and looking out for the underdog. And they even love sharing miracle stories about girls like Juniper.

But they’re too brainwashed or too stupid to realize exactly what they’re sharing.

The story of Juniper is a story of hope and a story about every life mattering – no matter how small they are or how long the odds.

The New York Post has a story about Juniper’s story with more heartwarming and inspiring details:

In April 2011, Kelley went into premature labor — she thinks it might have been caused by being hit in the belly by the rambunctious family dog — and Juniper was delivered by emergency C-section. The tiny baby, who is the Frenches’ first and only child, was placed on a mobile incubator with a ventilator and transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). She would remain there for more than six months.

Kelley didn’t get to hold Juniper until she was 2 weeks old, at which point she was only a few ounces heavier than her birth weight and just 11.4 inches long, the length of a Barbie doll. …

Months later, Kelley learned that the nursing staff only allowed her to hold the baby when she was still so small because they didn’t think Juniper would make it.

“It wasn’t until much later . . . that they said it was because Juniper was having a rare good day and every mom should get to hold her baby once while she is alive,” she says.

Despite the grim odds, Juniper pulled through, surviving multiple surgeries on her scrap of a body.

At 3 weeks old, her abdomen had to be opened up in an attempt to fix her collapsed intestines. But they were so inflamed, doctors were unable to complete the procedure and had to close her up.

This is a story about defying the odds. Juniper was born at 23 weeks and 6 days. She weighed only 1 pound, 4 ounces.

Doctors said there was an 80% chance she would die or be very disabled.
