This is SO true. One of my sisters-in-law just lost her baby because of spina bifida, which is caused by lack of folic acid. In her case, though, she didn't do anything wrong... her body is just unable to process it correctly. The baby was born and lived for 2 weeks before they finally had to let her go. It was horribly sad, and I think that women should do everything in their power to prevent such tragedies whenever possible.
As for the topic at hand, though, I really feel for that little girl and her family. It must be horrible to have to go through it.
