I can t believe the comment section. She was told there is a 50/50 chance. Would people be saying the same thing if a mother who got pregnant with HIV, and there was a 50/50 chance her son or daughter getting it? (By this comment section. I already know the answer.
She isn't selfish, what would have made her selfish would be her aborting her daughter because she didn't want to handle a child with a possible chance to having Cancer.
I guess every mother is selfish. Because everyone can get Cancer. Its a 50/50 chance in everyone. I guess that makes my mom selfish too. Becauae I am sick, not with Cancer but with neurofibromatosis. I am not mad at my mom, she isn't selfish, because like the girl in the video. I had a 50/50 chance of getting it. Unfortunately, this doesn't run on my mom's side. It ran on my dad's side.
The fact that this woman gave birth to her daughter knowing what could happen. And still loves her unconditionally, shows she isn't selfish. Shows to me that she is a caring and loving mother. And for those who are 'Pro-Life'. I am surprised you all keep saying adoption, adoption, adoption. Get over yourself. And see that even with losing her eye. Her daughter is happy and embraces herself. Isn't that what matters?
Because I swear up and down. Every mother on those St. Jude commercials must be selfish because their child has Cancer. If this is the mentality people have over this woman.

to call her selfish is quite ignorant. she prayed with all of her will for her baby not to come out like her, because after all, there was a 50% chance the baby wouldn't. selfish would have been the opposite or flat out not caring at all.
she probably thought going through chemo & continued body trauma, she'd may never be able to birth her own child - hence her ending up as such at only 18.
no, that's not an excuse. but i'm saying that even young, even with a slight disability, even with a child of the same - she has a radiance, a genuine positivity, happiness, amazing attitude, confidence & self-love that she is bravely passing on to her little one. that's more than i can say for tons of normal/healthy parents.

Yeah, because it was selfish. Also, gross that she's putting her in pagents too. Let me give birth to a kid who I know has a 50% chance of cancer and blindness. Then let me paint her like a doll and have gross adult men judge her based on her looks.
I hope she stays happy and healthy and has a great life. But damn. I would make every opposite choice.

A friend of mine lost her six year old daughter after she was hit by car. A few years later she had a beautiful baby boy and he was diagnosed with this horrible cancer. Lost his little eye at about 18 months old or so. It s been about a year and no new tumors. All my love and support to these two, my friend and her tough little guy. F cancer!

EVERY child is a blessing. We all have obstacles in our lives to overcome. Some are born with them, some come when we are older. Her daughter is a blessing and I m proud of her for keeping that baby!

why would anyone knowingly pass this on to a child? even if the child came out normal, the chances of it going to grandchildren is still pretty high, people like this make me sick to my stomach

Millions of people with hereditary diseases have children everyday, many much worse than this one. She is no more selfish than any other person who has children in the world.

She was a teenager. Most teenagers who get pregnant aren't thinking about what they can genetically pass down if they were to get pregnant.
