Amanda Schulten just gave birth to twins, who are conjoined at the torso. They share a heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys.

The doctors said to abort because of the low probability of survival. But Amanda, a strong Catholic, chose life. She believes God has a plan for her life and her two daughters. She has even started a blog, Faith & Hope & Love, telling about her journey.

In this culture of death it is refreshing that a young person -- Amanda is 21 -- would take such a stand. Read more about her story, and also visit her blog, where you can see pictures and read her poem “I Love You.” And make sure to pray for her and the babies at this difficult time.
