Chosen one
His mother was in her mid-teens when she found out she was pregnant. High school graduation was still a while away. She was not a person of means.
About a decade before her pregnancy, the U.S. Supreme Court had ruled that the mere fact of being a teenager could be considered a health reason justifying abortion. She could have easily taken that route. In fact, chances are a Planned Parenthood counselor would have recommended it.
But she chose life, and her son became known as the Chosen One.
