Parents of the Year

It’s been months since I posted anything of significance to my blog.  Today I saw something that has finally pulled me back into blogging. 

Ariel and Deborah Levy of Portland, OR are suing Legacy Health for $3 million.  The reason?  Their daughter was born with Down syndrome.  The plaintiffs contend that Legacy Health failed to accurately perform a prenatal test for Down.  The Levys have told the court that, had they known, they would have aborted their daughter.

The Levys have gone on record and said that their first choice would have been to kill their daughter in the womb.  I hope their daughter never learns of this when she is older.
