Pregnant Mom Was Beaten and Had Her Belongings Taken
Below is a story from someone who offers assistance to women going to Planned Parenthood to abort their babies, then does outreach to the homeless in Manchester. Life on the streets is dangerous.

I recently encountered a homeless couple in their 30s late one evening in Victory Park while passing out food and clothing. She was believed to be seven months pregnant. They were both drug addicts. He began to explain that earlier in the day, she was beaten and had her belongings taken by another homeless person. This is not uncommon. She was struck in the head and believed to have lost consciousness.
When I arrived, she was sitting in a chair, curled up, saying she was in pain with head and neck discomfort. After recommending she go to the emergency room, she said she’d go the next day and just wanted something to eat. Food was provided, and a trip to Walmart was made to purchase pillows, sleeping bags, clothes, and drinks and snacks for later. We talked a bit more, and then prayed together for mom and the baby. Dad and I exchanged phone numbers and agreed to stay in touch. Before departing, I implored both of them to go to the hospital and offered a ride; they declined.
Dad and I talked several times during the night and early day. She eventually fell unconscious that afternoon, and they called for an ambulance to take her to the Elliot Hospital. I met Dad in the emergency room waiting area, and he explained that she seemed to be doing better earlier in the day, but became very weak and passed out. Later that evening we were both allowed to go to the ICU to see her. She was in a coma and on life support. They told us the baby boy was alive and delivered and taken to the NICU. We requested that a priest be contacted to administer Last Rites, and eventually he arrived and did so for mom.
Several days passed, and neither dad nor I was being provided any further information on their condition. Apparently, mom's mother, who lives in Wisconsin, had legal rights to block physical access to mom and the baby and to require the hospital to discontinue all communications with us.
The priest who administered Last Rites was contacted and asked to baptize the baby since he didn't do so on his initial visit. He agreed to do so.
Dad's phone subscription got canceled, and we lost communication for a few days. I eventually caught up with him in the park, and he shared the sad news that mom died, as did their baby boy seven days later.
As of this writing, dad is in rehab in Nashua.
