"No Greater Love: Putting the Life of Her Unborn Baby First, Mother Dies After Giving Birth" - STEVEN ERTELT FEB 12, 2015 | http://www.lifenews.com/2015/02/12/no-greater-love-putting-the-life-of-her-unborn-baby-first-mother-dies-after-giving-birth/ [AS I SEE IT: I've heard people who advocate abortion say that it should be allowed when the mother's life's in danger. Of course, what they usually refer to is the mother's "psychological"life, her well-being emotionally. Yes, there are cases like these when the mother's physical life is in danger - at least as best as doctor's can determine it (which is sometimes proven wrong). But those times are in the one percent range of all pregnancies. That's why every day when I pray for the over 3,000 girls and women EVERY DAY who have scheduled abortions , I pray that whether by seeing a sonogram or having a dream or vision from God they will realize they are about to end the life of their unborn child, not merely ridding her body of some tissue. May they then have a mother's love towards her child. As this story illustrates, a mother's love is a life-giving love. - Stan]
Suzanne Mazzola, a special education teacher from Tamarac, Florida, was told during her pregnancy that giving birth to her son could cost her her life. She could have decided to have an abortion — after all, most people believe abortion is permissible in cases when the pregnancy threatens the mother’s life. But Mazzola proved that there really is no greater love than laying down’s one life for someone else. The 34-year-old died last week after giving birth to her fourth child, a beautiful little boy named Owen.
During her pregnancy, Mazzola suffered from placenta accreta, a rare condition that causes the blood vessels in the placenta to attach too deeply to the uterine wall causing severe bleeding. She knew that carrying Owen to term could potentially endanger her life but she made the decision to risk her life to save his. After delivering her healthy baby boy via Cesarean Section, Mazzola began hemorrhaging and a team of 15 doctors rushed her to emergency surgery. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to save her.
“She often mentioned how scared she was,” Mazzola’s coworker, Grace Duran, told the Sun-Sentinel newspaper. “We always told her to have faith and be positive. But we never thought this would be the outcome.” “As with many of us, we never think the worst will happen and don’t plan well enough for something like this,” wrote Mazzola’s aunt, Janet Free, on the family’s You Caring page. “Suzanne’s four children and husband Joe need our support, as there isn’t any financial safety net. Please honor Suzanne by helping support her family in their time of need.”[See link below]
Family friends are now raising funds to help the Mazzola family. Suzanna left behind her husband Joe, and their four children Matteo, 7, Ella, 5, Luca, 2, and Owen.

The following is from their You Caring page:
“Children are a gift from the Lord, a reward from a mother’s womb.” -Psalms 127:3
A Mother’s Love
Is something that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion and sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish and enduring, what may
For nothing can destroy it or take that love away…
It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or faulters even though the heart is breaking…
It believes beyond believing when the world around condemns,
And it glows with all the beauty of the rarest brightest gems…
It is far beyond defining,
It defies all explanations,
And it still remains a secret
Like the mysteries of creation…
A many splendored miracle man cannot understand
And another wondrous evidence of God’s tender guiding hand. - By: Helen Steiner Rice
