There's a really interesting story on MSNBC online about a baby whose life was saved by an experimental medical procedure before she was born. She had a tumor and doctors had to almost completely take her out of her mom's uterus and then operate. They put her back into the uterus and 10 weeks later she was born all over again. Modern medicine astonishes me. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25004390/?pg=5#TDY_BabyBornTwice

I think Macie Hope gave justice to the word born again... and i am also astonished how the world's medical techonoly has advanced... this wouldn't have been possible 10 years ago... but right now it is... So this gives hope to pregnant mothers whose babies inside thier womb are having complications... She really fit her name... and i hope she will grow up to be a very important member of society...
