Stacie Crimm Dies to Save Her Unborn Baby Daughter (Video)

Forgive me for bringing this up, but Stacie Crimm was a single mom, right? The article states “Crimm, of Ryan, Okla., “laughed and cried all at once” when she discovered in March that she was pregnant, because she had been told she would never be able to have children.” So, it sounds like she had made an intentional decision to become pregnant at 41. Where is the father in this tale of supreme sacrifice? Did he know that Crim was pregnant? Did he care? Was he a casual sex partner, or her partner in a long term committed relationship? Had Crim decided to undergo in vitro fertilization?

If the father had learned that Crim’s baby needed a parent, would he have wanted to step up to the plate? It’s odd that none of the articles about this story address the father angle.

Crim made the right choice. From the article, it appeared that her cancer was particularly virulent, and resistant to treatment. Plus, she knew that her brother’s family would take care of the baby.

But, what if she had a reasonable chance of survival with treatment? Or, if she had no-one to care for the child, and there was a good chance it would end up in foster care? After all, today there are 107,000 children in foster care waiting to be adopted ranging in age from less than a year old to 21: the majority of these children are caucasian like Crim’s little girl.

What if Crim had a husband and two other children at home, people that need her desparately?

All I can say is thank God Crim had the choice to do what she felt was right.

In countries in which abortion is outlawed completely, the state would have decided for Crim, and she would have been required to give up her life regardless of life’s circumstances. Self-sacrifice on her part would not even have been possible.

That is ridiculous. Even in places where abortion is illegal (as it should be…killing children should not be legal!), Dr.’s and patients can still make life and death decisions such as this. They already do it with GROWN patients, and killing adults is very much illegal.

As far as foster care, are you saying that we should kill children, instead of putting them in foster care? I am sorry, but just because a kid doesn’t have a parent, does not give anyone the right to kill him or her.

The majority of children in foster care are not allowed to be adopted. Family Services goal is to reunite families so they very seldom sever parents rights.Many foster families are more than willing to adopt the children they foster but are not allowed to. There are far more people willing to adopt than there are babies available for adoption. Foster care is the go to argument for pro-aborts but it just doesn’t hold true.

S sad she passed away, but I do believe the caring brother and wife will give the baby a good home and make the baby one of the family along with their other children.  That is a happy ending to a very difficult hardship.

None of what you have asked is your business, nor does it have to be explained to anyone!  What she did for her daughter is selfless and precious in the sight of God. No greater love is this than a man would lay down his life for another” Jesus said this, not only did He say it, He did it, He was our example! You have no right to question what she did or cast any negativity on it, shame on you! That is pure heartlessness on your part. All your what ifs, dont matter, they dont pertain here and you need to think before you speak.

Anyone who gets put into this situation would make their own choice based off their own lives, that has nothing to do with this story! This is HER story, no one elses! Maybe she did get inseminated, maybe she wanted to have a child, how is that your concern?  Frankly I am appauled at people rudeness, even in times like this.  Mind your own business and I in case your mom never taught you better, if you dont have something nice to say, dont say anything at ALL! By the way, your last sentence is completely irrelevant, why are you trying to take away the wonderfulness of what this mother did? That fact is she HAD a choice and she chose another life over her own, I cant help but wonder if you have made a choice perhaps you are regretting involving a child? Sounds like it to me!

Look at that beautiful baby’s picture and tell me again about that difficult choice.  Those difficult choice are the case in very few instances.  People use the extremest of cases to justify what if usually nothing more than convenience.

Simply put, I doubt there would be more than 25% of the current abortions if people were told the truth about the baby in their womb.

So, after you end abortion, you’ll get to work on all the miscarriages, still births, babies born who die hours later, things like that, right?

Nothing beautiful about this. It’s sad that a woman didn’t value her life enough to save herself.

 That is not right to say. She obviously valued the life of her unborn baby, as any good mother would.

Thats horrible to say!!! as a mother I would do anything for my kids!! get a heart!!

Just to clarify! I was trying to comment and I think I hit like to your above comment! I would lay my life down for my child any day!!! I cannot believe you are calling this lady selfish!!! What selfish reason could she possibly have for dying! Do you not think it broke her heart to know she was not going to have the first days of school, the graduation ceremony, the wedding!? But because of her unselfish act her daughter will most likely get the chance to experience all these things. Without her mother…yes. But she will have people around her that love her and she will have LIFE! How dare this lady be referred to as selfish when she gave the ultimate sacrifice!!
