Parents Reveal The Beautiful Baby Doctors Told Them To Abort 3 Times!
August 02, 2016
Doctors Suggested Abortion, But God Had Other Plans!
The sweet-faced Olivia-Jax is so picture perfect she almost looks like a baby doll instead of a real baby! It's hard to imagine that doctors suggested abortion not once, but three times. And yet, that's exactly what happened. Thankfully, her parents didn't listen, and God answered their prayers!

As a result, doctors suggested abortion. And had Melissa and Marshall listened, the world would have never known this precious angel. RELATED: Doctors told this rape victim to abort but she trusted in God instead Marshall shared the adorable photo of their perfectly healthy baby girl on Facebook, along with the stunning story of what happened when he and his wife chose to put their trust in something bigger than science!

"Hi, I'm Jax.
Doctors tried to bully my parents into aborting me three times. They said my intestines were out of my body - my momma and daddy wouldnt let them.
Credit: Facebook / Marshall JoynerThey said my legs and feet were deformed and not worth the mothers risk - my momma and daddy wouldn't let them.
Then they said I had Trisomy 18 and wouldn't live outside of the womb - and my mommy and daddy wouldn't let them. Daddy said he didn't believe them- he said their evidence was pathetic - daddy said I was fine. My mommy agreed. And went against the will and advice of the top doctors of their field "high risk pregnancy".

I'm almost 7 months old now because i was born a month early and - I'm fine. My name is Olivia-Jax not fetus not human tissue. I'm a little girl that my mommy and daddy didn't give up on - and I'm fine"
Credit: Facebook / Melissa Bailey Joyner What an incredible blessing! And an amazing reminder that with God can do anything. Each life is precious, even if the odds look stacked against it. Putting our faith in the Lord above to provide is the best thing we can do."But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26[rsnippet id="2" name="ArticleAd-300x250-3"]
