Baby Iver

February 4, 2014 by Faye Sonier 1 Comment

Many of you have probably already heard about baby Iver:

A Victoria woman who was declared brain dead is being kept on life support until doctors can deliver her unborn child.

Dylan Benson visits his wife Robyn in the hospital every day as their baby boy — already named Iver – grows inside of her.

Robyn, then five months pregnant, suffered a rare blood leak in late December that caused irreversible damage to her brain.

Now, doctors are hoping that they can keep her on a ventilator until the baby grows enough to be delivered via a caesarean section.

I appreciate what Mike Schouten had to say about the circumstances. Read it here.

    A heartening story and one that I feel is so personal I feel I can only say that I appreciate this man and his family and this life-ful determination.
