Sweet angel was sent to save my life

SARAH Newman, 37, faced a harrowing decision when diagnosed with cervical cancer at 19 weeks pregnant.

An inoperable 5.5cm tumour on her cervix could only be treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy – meaning terminating her pregnancy with son

Jacob. Sarah’s first child was only two at the time.

She said: “I kept looking at my son and thinking how can I take

away his mum if I don’t give myself the best chance to live.

“While we made this terrible, terrible choice, we were physically and mentally supported by Mummy’s Star every step of the way. Me and my husband faced the most heartbreaking decision.

“We had connected with Jacob, we loved him, I’d felt him move and seen him on scan pictures. He was already part of us.

“We believe this baby was sent to give me a message. Without him we may never have known about the cancer. He is my guardian angel.”
