That's fantastic :)  Even if she wasn't in such a great financial position
though, I'd probably suggest the same.. look for help, information and
support
- if you need it, it's there.

I'm not anti-abortion, btw, I just think that just because a parent is
disabled that doesn't necessarily mean she can't care for her children.  I
know deaf couples who have "hearing" children and geez.. when I
had my two kids, I would have screamed if someone suggested I would be
unable to take care of them :) I knew I could.

Take care,
Janis
