Any thoughts on he encroching Pro-death crowd?

By setting an arbitrary limit, that 11% could have been zero percent instead of the 20% it is today. Only by pushing the limits do we push the survivability back week after week after week.

Ten years ago survivability may have been 28 weeks (just a guestimate). Today it's 23 to 24. Setting a limit will insure only one thing. That 23 to 24 weeks will be the limit from here on out. Frankly I'd like to see it become 15 weeks sometime down the road and even less years after that.

Limits? No.

Witch.

Although most doctors are opposed to an age limit, Sir Alan Craft, president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said it was a legitimate option to consider. “One possible course of action would be not to intervene with any 23-week-old babies unless they breathe completely and spontaneously themselves,” he said.

Know this. God will NOT be mocked. You WILL answer to Him someday, and He is NOT someone who will look lightly at this disgusting "course of action".

What is the difference between these people and those that murder babies via abortion simply because of convenience?

Bliss, the premature baby charity, says about 50 babies born at 23 weeks survive every year and it would be wrong to deny them the chance to live.


I am afraid I dont think this is disgusting. Survive is a long shot from livning.

[sgtbono2002]

The thought of this premature baby lying on the table while so called doctors and nurses stand by and watch it die is horrific. I suppose Dr. Mengele would reach over and wring its little neck. How do so-called human beings come up with ideas like this.

My Nephew was a premie of 5 months. He is now as healthy as anyone else ,smarter than a whip, and is 16 and works two jobs already. Nice kid. When I think that this woman and these doctors may have flushed him down a toilet it sickens me.

[DameAutour]

So of those that survive, most of them either have no disability or have something mild like a "squint". And for this, they must die?

[chimera]

My son was born at 7 months gestation and I can tell you this: I'd have killed anyone who would have denied him a chance at life. He is the absolute joy of our lives and in many ways is the reason I stick with this lousy fight day after day, the hope of building a better life for him.

Those who destroy the children of a society end up ripping its heart and soul out. God will surely damn them for doing so.

[mmercier]

I should not have read this.

One almost wishes that these "ethicists" found themselves in the same circumstance years back. Then the rest of us would be spared from their wisdom..

>> “Some doctors and nurses get competitive about the triumph of keeping these tiny, premature, babies alive,”

And we all know competition is a bad thing.

>> Although most doctors are opposed to an age limit

Because the light of compassion still lives within their hearts, and they are well aware that the more they try to manage a critical medical situation the easier it becomes. They know they need trial and error, not state mandated ignorance.

>> The Nuffield council is investigating the costs of raising the disabled children that premature babies often become as well as the expense of intensive care in neonatal units.

And therein lies the nut of the issue.

Cost.

Fans of socialized medicine should take note, it all boils down to this in the end. As the number of elderly rise, the number of some other competing financial burden shall yield. Granny waits for her new hip, or premie baby jane is LEFT TO DIE.

At least hitler was honest about it, he simply exterminated all the menially retarded, premature, and unfit (permanently disabled) up front, and with no compunction.

These "ethicists" feel the need to justify their proposed methodology to ease their compunction. And at the same time attain the same outcome. These people are pigs. If they are "ethicists" then I am Henry the eighth.

[Americanexpat]

The Spartans are still alive and well. Maybe they can take the babies up into the mountains to die from exposure. Don't have a mountain, use a sky scraper. We can't kill enough of our children with abortions we can fall back on ancient remedies. /Sarcasm

[Walkingfeather]

Don't you think we can live with a few less "experts"?

The culture of death seems to be everywhere these days...

[HighlyOpinionated]

The Nuffield council is investigating the costs of raising the disabled children that premature babies often become as well as the expense of intensive care in neonatal units.

It always boils down to money, doesn't it?

Today, it's premies, tomorrow it's Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Cystic Fibrosis, Spina Bifida, and on and on.

Then they'll turn on the elderly and say that anyone who's lived beyond age 85 should have food and water withheld, even if the person is of sound mind.

On the one hand, science is trying to help couples who can't have babies using in-vitro fertilization and on the other hand, science is saying that a baby born earlier than 25 weeks premature should be exterminated.

You know why, don't you? They want the bodies of these babies for stem cell research.

And here's the INTERESTING thing, they're not calling these little humans "products of conception" or "blobs" either. They're calling them BABIES.

Abortion proponents, take note!
