When I was pregnant with our second child, her test for Down syndrome was positive. My husband and I discussed it for about 2 minutes. We are Catholic so there was no consideration to abort her. We just knew our lives would change. We bought books, spoke to parents of Down syndrome children, and prayed.
When she was born, she did not have Down syndrome, to our surprise. The test was wrong. Tests are often wrong, we later learned. In fact, 10% of positive NIPT results for Down syndrome are false positives.
Our daughter just finished her second year of law school and has thrived. She is my best friend and I don't know how I could be whole without her.
By brother suffers from Cerebral Palsey. He just turned 50 but is really about 12, mentally. We love him so.
They are both gifts.
Everyone has to make their own decision, and only God can judge, but taking a life purposefully with the rationale that they may not be perfect makes no sense to me, but that's just me.
Admittedly, your post gave me great pause. Oh what you may have missed out on no matter the outcome because you were worried about health issues.
What happens if your next child has the same prenatal diagnosis?

Federal authorities to bring in advanced technology equipment to help solve Nancy's case according to @mikerreports. (I believe they have already consulted with many such experts)
Advanced technologies are imperative to solve this case because advanced technology was used to commit this horrendous crime against Nancy.

*Bitcoin wallet owner - Untraceable to date
*Timestamps on door camera footage - unretrievable to date
The more SMEs, the better!

BREAKING: @FoxNews is on scene in Portsmouth, VA where the FBI is raiding the office of Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore L Louise Lucas, a Democrat and close ally of VA Governor Spanberger. Fed law enforcement sources tell FOX this is in connection to a major corruption probe, and the FBI is serving multiple search warrants, approved by a federal judge, at her office and a next door cannabis dispensary. More to come with correspondent @AlexHoganTV, who reports that Lucas just showed up on scene as the FBI searches her office.
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

On March 12, 2026, Dallas SWAT shot and killed a man known publicly as Mike King (aka Michael King; real name withheld, convicted felon using aliases) during a standoff at Children's Medical Center Dallas parking garage.
He was wanted for impersonating a law enforcement officer. King ran Off Duty Police Services (placing officers in off-duty jobs) but drove a replica undercover vehicle with stolen plates and oversaw security at hotels/church.
He provided security for Rep. Jasmine Crockett, including her Senate campaign; photos show him at events with her, and records indicate payments for services last year.
Police say: He barricaded in a vehicle, tear gas was deployed, he emerged pointing a gun at officers. No officers injured.
Crockett's office and DPD declined further comment. Incident raises vetting questions for congressional security.
Sources: CBS News Texas (J.D. Miles, Mar 13 update); WFAA reports confirm felon posing as officer.
🚨#BREAKING: Officials in Kankakee, Illinois have declared a mass casualty incident after an extremely large and violent tornado tore through the area hours ago. Authorities report possible fatalities and multiple injuries, with numerous homes and buildings suffering significant damage as emergency crews continue search and rescue operations.
No surprise at all after the Olympics they had — one gold, one silver. Over the years, many top skaters have decided not to go to the world championships right after the Olympics. For Chock and Bates, this makes all the sense in the world.
Ilia Malinin has been nominated for "Best Costume" (A Voice – Version 2) and "Most Entertaining Program" (The Lost Crown) for the 2026 ISU Skating Awards.

In regard to private searches, and my stance has never changed:
Private searchers are amazing! Searchers are dedicated, many are former LE or Fire, and they have no motivation outside of helping and finding the person missing.
Once the crime scene is released, let them hunt. The more eyes the better. Bodies, cars, evidence, other indicia of a crime can get missed. We have seen that time and again.
LE should be encouraging search parties when they have cleared out.
Obviously, private property permissions are paramount, but send these volunteers out!

Kiely Rodni, off the top of my head, were found by private searchers.
This is a no Brainer.
Please tell me the down side. I can't see one. Never could once LE has cleared.
We are moving into day 22.
No Nancy.
