NEW: Florida mother gives birth to terminal baby and donates organs to help other newborns

At 14 weeks, Catherine Mornhineway and Andrew Ford learned their daughter, Haven, had a rare condition and would only live a few hours with machines

Doctors offered to terminate or carry the pregnancy

Inspired by a “Grey’s Anatomy” episode, they chose to carry Haven so she could donate organs

After delivery, they held Haven and shared a few precious hours together

HCA Brandon held its first-ever honor walk for a newborn

The hospital completed the state’s first successful partial heart transplant from a newborn

@Quint_Beastwood they were inspired by a tv show and motivated by internet clout. If they were truly altruistic we wouldn't read about it.

@Comfortably_numb and also. Did u EVEN ONCE find out their name? They are from Tampa, my home town. They are real people and I hope you and yours NEVER have to make this tough of a decision- While a bunch of racist gay cunts on theworldwatch dot com Call them fake or no altruistic.

They don't give a damn about what you fucking think.

They saved lives..

Even if you think it wasn't enough.

@scholarandrogue she had anencephaly. Her skull and brain didn't have all the parts for life to continue. "Not having all ur skull and brain" DOES mean dead soon. Don't speak if u don't know.

Hopefully, in a few years, she gets to meet the people who received the organs.
