"Gianna Molla died putting her child's life before her own. What could inspire in someone such selfless courage and love? The cancerous growth in her womb had been detected early in the pregnancy, but Gianna opted for an operation which, if successful at all, would put herself, rather than her unborn child at risk. Her child lived, but Gianna died a week after the birth, filled with joy at this new life. Her testimony to a 'love beyond death' - the powerful love of Christ - still resonates loud and clear today."
