Montreal Woman Receives $45,000 for “Failed” Abortion of Twins

MONTREAL, Quebec, April 5, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A woman who tried to abort her twin babies has been awarded $45,000 in damages by a Quebec court, after a Montreal hospital left her still pregnant.

Russian-born Saoudat Batoukaeva underwent an abortion procedure at St. Luc’s hospital on March 26, 1999, the Toronto Star reported yesterday. Three weeks later, the hospital discovered she was still pregnant after a routine tissue analysis.

Hospital officials were unable to reach Ms. Batoukaeva, who had moved to Toronto. She discovered she was pregnant with twins after an examination in July, and gave birth to the babies two weeks later. The children were born prematurely at 25 weeks.

Quebec Superior Court Justice Michel Caron ruled in the woman’s favour, even though the hospital had made efforts to contact her. However, he awarded only half the requested sum of $90,000 to her and her husband, on the grounds that she was partially responsible, having missed a required follow-up appointment.

In a similar case in 2004, a BC judge awarded a single mother $60,000 for a “failed” abortion. The court denied her compensation for the cost of raising the child, saying “the joy she derives from the presence of this child in her life” was reward enough.

To say nothing of the joy that will occur when that child is old enough to Google this story!

I'll take those babies and raise them myself. She doesn't deserve them.

I discovered just a few weeks ago that I am pregnant. My husband and I are thrilled, and this Monster of a woman was married. Everyone on this thread is talking about her, let's talk about him, those were his babies she tried to get rid of, and failed. Geesh, If I try to do the laundry or walk the dog my husband gets protective.

MONSTERS

A hospital is fined for not murdering twins?

Turn out the lights folks, the party's over.

And how much is the dead baby getting? Oh that's right, nobody represents the deceased in this case. Too bad.

When the surviving baby gets old enough, I hope they file a suit against this woman and throw her ass in jail, along with the physical who robbed the baby of a twin.

I hope those children never have to worry about it. Better to put them up for adoption than have them under the care of that woman.

Congratulations! May God bless you with healthy child. However, you do play a role in the health of the child.

You are much better off remaining as acitive as you can for as long as you can. It will help at the time of delivery if you are still at your best phyical health.

Get out there and jog if you want. It will be better for your baby.
