A mother shared in July how she refused to have an abortion while battling cervical cancer, choosing instead to carry her baby to term.
Amy Cupit, from Nottingham, was told she could abort her child and have surgery to remove a grade one tumour. But she chose life and doctors were able to treat her cancer while she was still pregnant.
She was then able to carry Ruby until 39 weeks, when she was born by caesarean section. Amy, who suffered five miscarriages before becoming pregnant with Ruby, said she was ‘delighted’.
