Gasometers Reimagined as Apartment Community

The gross thing is that someone impregnated her.

@ Anthony:
'Tis a pity everyone is not as perfect as you.

@ Anthony...

The gross thing is that you're allowed to post here.

Congratulations lady, you broke evolution. So much for survival of the fittest.

I find it very difficult to understand why someone major health issues would want sentence their children to the same hardships and huge medical costs that I am sure they have gone through themselves. If they wanted kids so bad why the heck not adopt !!

@ Bean:
It could be argued that we have broken all sense of natural selection with modern science & technology.

@ Kate:
The article did say the new child was normal in all respects.

@Bean
Yes this child is normal but her first child also suffers the same condition as her.

THE SAD PART IS THAT SHE IS SPREADING HER UGLY GENES!

I'm sorry, I don't think this is anything to be proud of. She already has passed along her genetic disorders to one child, and this second could very well pass along the same traits to their kid.

If she felt she had to have kids regardless of her disabilities, that's great - but why not adopt? Nah.... that's okay if two more kids in this world grow up without loving homes, if they're lucky enough to grow up at all.

Holy cow. Or should I say Holier-than-thou Cow?

Why don't you adopt them then, Jennifer?

Bunch of hateful people posting in here, or what?

@Paul M:
Her other child was born with the SAME problem as the mother read the full article and they are planning on having another child

"that’s okay if two more kids in this world grow up without loving homes"

Just because she has health issues, doesn't mean she can't love her children.

And I'm sure adopting a child is no where near having one of your own. It's an alternative...not the only option. If you can have kids...go for it!

Jennifer & Kate, i am more concerned that you pass your questionable opinions along to your future or current kids, how do suggest we prevent that from happening?

I agree with Kate & Jennifer. That lady has a serious genetic disorder which she has passed on to her first child. It's just dumb luck that her second child is healthy but could still distribute those genes to a future generation.

Some people should really be stopped from having kids when they're so selfcentered that they can only think of their own need to have children and have no eye for the future happiness of their children.

Admittedly, I know nothing about this particular woman and her previous children, but as someone who has grown up with a birth defect, I can say that my life has not been so bad that I would rather have not lived it. In fact, I have enjoyed my life so far, even though it hasn't always been easy.

But you know, it's really sad when people who have no disabilities or birth defects make comments about how the people who do have disabilities don't have the right to be happy with their lives and/or reproduce. Obviously, given that this woman is a full grown adult and is having children of her own, she doesn't see her life as being all that bad, regardless of living with her disabilities. So who are you to say that she doesn't have the right to enjoy all the things in life that you can? And who is to say that those children aren't going to enjoy their lives as well?

I commend this lady for not letting ignorant people get her down or keep her from doing living her life and doing what makes her happy. As long as she loves and cares for those children, that's all that should matter.

@ ted

Guess what? I did! Best thing I've ever done.

@ priscilla

I never suggested she couldn't love her own kids. Just that she isn't able to open herself up enough to love those who really need it.

I'm sorry you don't consider parents who adopt as being equal to those who have their own. But I've always seen the ability to open your heart and home to a child in need as a greater thing than having your own. Only the strongest can take that journey and suffer the heartbreaks and setbacks that often occur. If you truly want to make the world a better place, start with the kids who need families.

Good for you, Jennifer. Then obviously, you have the right to judge other people based on their physical attributes. I hope the children you adopted were good, strong blond-haired, blue-eyed, free from defects, and fit for leadership in the next Reich.

Are you 28 1/2 inches tall? If this woman went to adopt kids, she would be turned down by people with the same narrow-minded and judgmental opinions that you've shown here.

Just thinking of what she's gone through just to have kids shows how strong this woman is. Oh, I forgot, you risked getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from all that paper-signing when you adopted.

"And I’m sure adopting a child is no where near having one of your own."

What a hateful attitude. Millions of parents who have adopted would beg to differ with you.

I think it is very sad that people can't look past the fact she uses a wheelchair to get around. Once you know a person you are able to look past their imperfections. Like a man/woman who drinks, does drugs, smokes, ect. I feel that many of the people who can get on here and leave the nasty, hurtful messages that they need to take a good look at themselves in the mirror. Look beyond your physical being and see who you really are. Try going to church and learn about walking in love with others. As the comment was made at my families home, ignorant people ridiculed Jesus, why would we expected anything different these days?? If you can only focus on the negatives of this situation rather than the blessings that God as created, it tells alot about who you are as an individual. We are all equal, god created us that way. Yes God created those babies...Miracles..He sent Jesus to die for our sins and what makes you question his creations now??? All I can suggest...is find Jesus and your perspective of this situation will change. Don't worry Jesus forgives and so does the Herald family for your negative comments. Being born with a disability doesn't require you to give up on your dreams in life. Walking in faith is not an easy task, blessings are God works in your life. Look past the wheelchair and what you consider normal!!!! We don't ask for donations or your money to care for them. I am the proud Aunt of those miracles and I hope each of you learn how to love like Jesus. May God Bless each and every one of you. For those of you who leave positive comments, thank you. God knows your heart and we appreciate your support.

I am the proud father of these three blessings from God (including my wife) God wrote in the bible that he will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you (postive & negative). My saying to all the people that write negative things sums it up in two words FIND JESUS
