Babies with T-18 and T-13 are dying and doctors need to stop refusing them!

    T-18 (trisomy 18) and T-13 (trisomy 13) are conditions that give you a third 18th or 13th chromosome just like T-21 (down syndrome). Doctors around the country can actually REFUSE to take care of them and do their surgery's causing them to suffocate, cardiac arrest, ect. And they will die.. there have been several people I know with this happening and its heartbreaking to even think about. Your own daughter, son, grandson, granddaughter, nephew, niece, or sibling fighting for their lives staying strong and doctors refuse to give them the surgery they need eventually causing them to die even though they had every right to live! They're still using articles made in the 50s that say they'll only make it hours to days but back then they didn't have the technology. Now there surviving months and years if (because they didn't get what they needed to live) how do we know if they'll thrive if we don't treat them I bet they'll live full lives, get married, and start businesses just like people with down syndrom do today! They used to think the same about them and now we know they're just like anyone else! Doctors are literally refusing their care just because they were born that way! They cant actually change that! Just because they have T-18 or T-13 doesn't mean they die! It means they just need extra care to survive, and if we get doctors to stop turning them away because of their condition not only people will stop losing family but our society would be a better place.
    It would be rich with hope and prosperity knowing that their families can survive! Sign now and let's stop this madness TOGETHER! If you want to learn more you can go to S.O.F.T. website.
