Like you said: no one visits an abortionist for an already dead baby. My mother lost one child at a fairly late date and had to have a D&C, which her rabidly pro life physician performed for her (and which nearly killed her; these things are not safe and predictable).

The only “skill” an abortionist has that a real doctor doesn’t, is the willingness to kill a living child.

I'm sorry if I came off judgmental about the D&C. I'm certainly not. My niece and her husband are the parents. Their child was dead and they needed to do what was best for their whole family as well as any possible future children. I have no doubt a D&C is sometimes the best choice for a couple whose child is dead, particularly if labor and delivery could further complicate the mother's health.

My main point, if the neighbor is still reading, is that it is truly nonsensical to think an abortionist several states away could do this procedure better than a physician in a hospital.
