Woman Sues Scottish Abortionists for Support of Surviving Twin

PERTH, December 7, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A Scottish court has set a date for the case of a woman seeking damages from her abortionist for failing to kill both of her twin daughters. Stacy Dow is suing the Perth Royal Infirmary after the hospital sent her home still pregnant with the surviving child, Jayde, now four.

“I have got a child now that I wasn't planning to have and I believe the hospital should take some responsibility for that,” Dow told a London newspaper in April.

Perth Sheriff Court set has set March 2006 as the date for the case in which Dow is seeking £250,000 for the “financial burden” of her surviving child. Dow had been told that no “live material” had survived the procedure.

The NHS is contesting the suit saying that at the time there had been no indication that a child had survived.

Dow’s lawyers are arguing that Jayde’s birth has created an unjust burden for her mother. “As a result of the failed termination,” the suit says, “the pursuer suffered loss, injury and damage…She has the financial burden of care, upbringing and aliment of Jayde. She suffers an impediment in her ability to obtain employment in consequence of her care for the child.”

Dow is quoted by the BBC saying that she does not know what she is going to tell her daughter, Jayde. “I have got a child now that I wasn't planning to have and I believe the hospital should take some responsibility for that,” she said.

“I still don't know if, or what, I am going to tell Jayde when the time comes. Maybe when she is nine or ten I will sit her down and explain it to her.”

She added: “The hospital knew it was twins when I went for the termination so they should have checked even more carefully before sending me home.”

In recent years, “wrongful life” or “wrongful birth” suits have sprung from the abortion logic that unwanted children are, in the words of California pro-life speaker Scott Klusendorff, “a disease, the recommended treatment for which is abortion.” In Canada, France and the US wrongful birth suits are pushing legal experts and legislators to confront the legal consequences of taking the logic to its final ends.

"No live material had survived the procedure"

As I sit here watching over my sleeping new-born twins, I just want to cry for the evil the death industry produces around the world every day.

Lord, have mercy on us.

Better watch the results of this trial closely... Senator Specter will be citing this decision in the near future to justify his own position on the matter...

Speechless...

What a HORRIBLE response to at least one child being saved.

What in God's name is wrong with these people???

wow. she is the one that had sex, right? Or did the hospital tell her to go have sex? This is another example of someone using abortion as birth control. poor lady. having to explain to her surviving daughter what happened. I mean,..the mental trauma.

OUTRAGES

I'm probably preaching to the choir so forgive me.I think it needs to be said more often that there is no such thing as a pro choice Christian,or for that matter on a slightly different subject,a pro gay Christian.ANYONE out there that may have had the wool pulled over their head,THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PRO CHOICE CHRISTIAN,and there is no room for discussion.Case closed,the fat lady has sung.

One can only imagine what her four year old thinks of mommy suing the doctor who killed her sibling for not killing her as well.

I am very much a Pro-Choice Christian. I just don't accept killing a baby is anybody's legitimate "choice".

To be pro-life is to be pro-choice. We are defending the baby's ultimate choice to live.

This poor little girl would have been far better of being adopted out at birth. What a sad, sad story. I cant imagine what the mother will tell that child, but of course, I cant imagine killing her twin either.

Its not too late to adopt her out, send her to America, there would be a stampede to adopt that precious child. Me included.

Meanwhile, Satan awaits the "mother"

To Stacy Dow,

Since you obviously have no maternal instincts, please put her up for adoption so that she will not have to hear how you killed her twin, and because she is such a burden on you, you want someone else to pay for her existence.

What innocent child could bear to hear from the person who bore her that she wanted her dead in the womb?

The whole abortion movement is based on this fantasy delusion that sex can be separated from love and reproduction without serious consequences. Botched abortions being among those.

But here's the kicker:

“I still don't know if, or what, I am going to tell Jayde when the time comes. Maybe when she is nine or ten I will sit her down and explain it to her.”

Well, duh, lady! Maybe she should have thought about that before having an abortion. "What will you tell a child if that child survives your attempt to abort him or her???" I mean, can you imagine telling ANYONE that it was your intention to abort them??? And aborting TWINS??? This is just a disgusting and awful example of where liberal secular humanism has led modern society. She apparently has no moral integrity at all. This is just...demonic.

Maybe the abortion survivor will one day abort the "mother".

Dear God, what a cold monster this woman is.

Dow is quoted by the BBC saying that she does not know what she is going to tell her daughter, Jayde. “I have got a child now that I wasn't planning to have and I believe the hospital should take some responsibility for that,” she said. “I still don't know if, or what, I am going to tell Jayde when the time comes. Maybe when she is nine or ten I will sit her down and explain it to her.”

How, exactly, does a psychopath go about explaining to her surviving daughter that she put out a contract on both her children but the incompetent hitman only whacked one of them? "And unfortunately, Jayde, you lived and that's why I'm having to go through yet another inconvenience- because of your survival, I have to sue the doctor for what you've cost me."

What an utter piece of crap she is.
