While out cycling today, we came across a little shrine of teddy bears. One year ago a newborn baby was found abandoned in this drain. Fortunately, there are many cyclists cycling by, and the cries of the baby were overheard. He was rescued and placed into the care of the state.

I have understanding and even sympathy that some people who have kids simply are not cut out to be parents, for whatever reason. But why on earth condemn a newborn baby to die in a drain, when there’s so many other options available?

I don’t understand it myself, fortunately the baby was rescued and it seemed to be just in time. My husband had cycled past there that day, but hadn’t heard anything. Only learnt about it afterwards!

It’s heartening to know that this baby was saved, Vonita. And I pray that he never finds out how he came into this world.
