WICHITA, Oct 5 (LSN) – “She was the closest thing to a saint I will ever know,” said Marykay Brown the adopted mother of Sarah Brown a five-year-old abortion survivor who died last week. The child struggled for life from her birth which was miraculous since she survived an attempted late-term abortion. When the abortionist attempted to inject the child’s heart with an agent that would kill her, Sarah moved in her mother’s womb and the injection went into the side of her head instead. She was adopted a day later by a pro-life family. Bill and Marykay Brown and their other seven children cared for Sarah, who became a focal point for the pro-life movement in the area. Despite severe disabilities Sarah had a profound effect on people, she enjoyed music and would smile and turn her head to the sounds of Bach, country music and old-time gospels. Marykay recalled that her daughter “loved people, you could tell from her mannerisms.””She was literally a throw-away child that nobody wanted. God chose us to be her parents, and it was a great honor.” Memorials have been established with Sarah Ministries, Emprise Bank, 100 N. Meridian, Valley Center, Kan. 67147; and Kansans For Life Open Doors, 2501 E. Central, Wichita, Kan. 67214.
