Meabh McArdle was just over 1lb when she was born last year at 23 weeks and three days - and doctors gave her a 1% chance of survival. But her mother, Fionnuala, knew she was a fighter.  "She had a really hard journey but she is 13 weeks now and weighs 3lbs 11ozs," she said.

"She had a heart operation around five weeks old on her duct to close it. She was one of the smallest babies and she will be in there a while but now she is one of the biggest. She went from being one of the sickest to one of the best.

Abortion supporters want the right to abort babies at this age and beyond. Fionnuala will tell the Rally for Life why every baby has the right to life, and why we should especially protect the vulnerable and most helpless of all our children.
