From the article:

Hernandez’s pediatrician wept as she told her the diagnosis. The baby had trisomy 13, a devastating chromosomal abnormality. Most children die before their first birthday and have serious mental and physical disabilities, including heart and breathing problems.

“I don’t want to tell anybody any pipe dream. It’s not all sugarplum fairies. The first year my other children basically didn’t have parents. My house didn’t get cleaned and the laundry didn’t get done. It was all about Isabel,” she said. “But we want people to know the real story. To give them both sides, and let them make a decision. Don’t try to scare them into something.”

“My life is better because of Isabel. All of our lives are better because of her.”
