Michigan Catholic Couple Refuses to Abort Their Conjoined Twins | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A couple in Michigan is expecting conjoined twins. It is a life-limiting diagnosis. Nicole and Austin LeBlanc say instead of a baby shower, they likely will instead be planning a funeral for their conjoined twin girls. The Catholic couple says they have resisted calls to have an abortion and add their twins are giving them hope and inspiration. Nicole and Austin LeBlanc join to tell us more about their story. Nicole shares what went through her mind when she heard the news her twins were conjoined and what went through her mind when doctors advised her to have an abortion. She discusses what the reaction has been to her decision to give birth to her conjoined twins. Austin explains how they picked the names Maria Therese and Rachel Clare for their twins. On social media earlier this week, Nicole said the twins have an immediate reaction to one of the TV shows they watch. She tells us more about that. They fill us in on what advice they have for anyone at home who might be facing difficulties and how this journey with their daughters has strengthened their faith. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
