Meet Cierra, a child saved from forced abortion

Cierra
Several months ago there was a story about a disabled pregnant woman from Nevada who was facing a potential court-ordered forced abortion and sterilization, despite her willingness to give birth. Prolifers from across the country created a backlash may have played a role in preventing a forced abortion and saving a life.  

After initially appearing to favor the forced abortion, the judge subsequently decided against the abortion after the case received widespread attention, provoking a heated backlash from pro-life activists around the country.

Cierra “has a lot of dark hair and a nice pink skin tone,” wrote Bauer family attorney Jason Guinasso in an email to LifeSiteNews announcing the birth.  “She is sweet and good natured.  By all measures, she is perfectly healthy and sublimely beautiful.”

Guinasso said both mother and baby are doing well, and a loving adoptive family has been identified for baby Cierra.
