    I remember hearing about this in 1999 I was also pregnant with my son and I just cried when I heard Chericas story. The 911 call just broke my heart. My son is 21 now and I often think of Cherica and how much in 21 years has happened. Chancellor was robbed of a great mother but thank God he has his grandmother who has taken that role and never gave up on him. This lady is an inspiration to me I absolutely love her even though I don't know her.

    I did a paper in my criminal law class on Rae Carruth. The cowardliness of that man was unimaginable. The more I researched for the paper the greater my faith in mankind became as I read about how the grandmother who lost her daughter to that man would step up so fiercely to raise her grandchild with love and compassion. She is a rare breed.

    • @AmberxLovelyy

    It's sad that he lost his mother & has to be disabled but I think he is going great as far as beating the odds of them saying he would be in a vegetative state.
    When I was in a coma for 5 days they told my mom the same thing. This was in March 2017.
