A year ago yesterday, my little sister found out (on her birthday) that her unborn child had an incredibly rare complication in the womb. The baby had an amniotic band wrapped around her leg, choking off the blood flow to the rest of the leg and close to amputation. Typically, w amniotic band tangles, the limb would already be gone by the time doctors found the complication. My sister’s doctors told her there was nothing she could do; the baby would be born without a leg and they advised her to abort.
