If RU486 is involved prior to the hospital admission, then I could see how this could be close to accurate.

This link just worked for me.
It discusses the French abortion law, including RU-486.
The law is quite restrictive, and RU-486 abortions are regulated by it just as all other abortions are.
Actually, I apologize again for the link.
I inadvertantly posted the google search window, instead of the link itself.
If you go to the fifth entry down, "Grounds on which abortion is permitted...", you will come to the abortion laws of France.
