Mother: Son was 'cruelly' called 'non-viable foetus'

My son being called a "non-viable foetus" was "cruel" says mother of one year-old boy.

Mhari Morris says doctors urged her to have an abortion when her waters broke at 20 weeks.

She said all the test results had come back as "relatively normal" which gave her "hope" although this was "dismissed" by doctors.

Against all odds, Jett was born at 25 weeks and has just celebrated his first birthday.

Surry and Sussex Healthcare NHS trust say "At no point did we put pressure on her to terminate her pregnancy".
