The birth occurred on the 18th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks when Islamic terrorists took over multiple planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. (RELATED: NYT Suggests Planes, Not Terrorists, Were Responsible For 9/11 Attacks)
“On that day, 9/11, you know, you find triumph, you find a piece of joy from a day that’s so drastic and still hurts,” the mother told CBS affiliate WREG.
Christina Malone-Brown was born at Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital.
“Everybody was saying we should go play the lottery,” father Justin Brown reportedly said.
He also said the doctor kept saying, “Oh my goodness, I’ve got a 9/11, 9/11, 9/11.”
