Overjoyed by their first pregnancy, newlyweds from North Carolina hadn’t made it very far into their pregnancy when they learned their unborn baby son had a severe genetic disorder and a form of dwarfism affecting roughly one in 100,000. Led by faith, the couple refused an abortion, embracing whatever the future may hold.
Native Floridian Hannah Peters, 30, has been married to native Californian Sullivan Peters, 30, for 11 years, and both have a “strong foundation of faith.” They made their home in Charlotte, North Carolina, and their miracle son, Jude, turned 9 years old on April 17.
