THE Streckfuss family’s decision to give birth to their daughter, Charlotte, when they knew she would not live beyond a few hours, let alone days, is a powerful example of love and the recognition of the preciousness of life.
Other parents might have been tempted to seek an abortion upon discovering that Charlotte had little hope of life.
But Teresa and Mark Streckfuss knew that giving Charlotte a chance to have a short life in their loving arms was more important than no life at all.
The story of this family’s love is one worth taking into our hearts and being thankful for the gift of life.
