Little Miracles


Rachel Crossland discovered she was pregnant shortly before undergoing surgery for cancer. She says: "By then I was 13 weeks into my pregnancy and there was no way I could deal with getting rid of my babies and having to then fight cancer. That was the turning point and I decided I would take a chance." So she refused to abort her twins and made the decision not to have chemotherapy, fearing that it would harm them.

Both Rachel and her twins survived and she is now recovering at home with her family.
