Agent Orange ravages lives in Vietnam and here at home: Unfinished Business (video)



Agent Orange ravages lives in Vietnam and here at home: Unfinished Business (video)

Heather Morris Bowser, whose father was exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam, was born with several birth defects

Heather Anne Morris was born on Oct. 7, a full two months early.

Sharon remembers lying on the delivery table, a tented sheet at her waist blocking her view. She remembers the doctor looking at her newborn baby and gasping, "Oh, my God."

Her memory of Heather's birth ends there. On doctor's orders, the anesthesiologist knocked her out.

Two hours later, her tearful husband stood by her hospital bed and delivered the devastating news about their baby girl.

"She's damaged," Bill told her. "She has birth defects."
