Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 My guess is this lady had more issues than fibroids. But, it should give us hope that all our pain and suffering is not For Naught! From today's www.CNN.com reporting . . . " VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope II named six new saints Sunday, including a woman who became a symbol for abortion opponents because she refused to end her pregnancy despite warnings that it could kill her. The Vatican has long championed the case of Beretta Molla, an Italian pediatrician who died in 1962 at the age of 39 -- a week after giving birth to her fourth child. Doctors had told her it was dangerous to proceed with the pregnancy because she had a tumor in her uterus, but she insisted on carrying the baby to term. In proclaiming her a saint, praised her " extreme sacrifice " and her simple but profound message. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
