A 24-year-old the pregnant Riverside County woman decided to forego potentially lifesaving chemotherapy after learning she had cancer, opting to put her unborn baby girl’s life ahead of her own. Following the birth of Paisley in July, a full body scan revealed the cancer had spread throughout Amanda Bridges body, even into her brain. She was given just months to live. “It wasn’t a choice to me,” Bridges told CNN in a recent interview. “She’s first. I’m not going to kill a healthy baby because I’m sick…Her life is just as important as mine if not more important.

She says her goal now is to live to see Paisley’s first birthday. Read KTLA’s story here: ktlane.ws/1CatYEU
