What injuries would a baby who survives an abortion attempt have? How horrible. Women who are considering an abortion should have to view pictures of a baby who has survived an abortion before having one. Women need to face what they are really doing to their baby. I really don't understand how a doctor could even perform an abortion. How can they be so cold-blooded? Even worse, how can the mothers?

I really don't understand how a doctor could even perform an abortion. How can they be so cold-blooded?

I won't defend the mothers, and I'm not supporting the doctors...but to answer your rhetorical question: I think they would perform them in the same "cold-blooded" fashion that a surgery to separate conjoined twins knowing that one of the twins will die so the other can live.

For the (would be) mothers though, the tradeoff is ignoble, and instead of trading one twin's life for the other, they trade one child's life for their own selfish convenience.
