I can just imagine what the ‘health professionals’ [I refuse to use the word ‘nurse’ in this context] think when they see the ‘expelled fetus’ take a breath: Oh, damn, now we will have to wait until this “product of abortion” stops breathing!
Many years ago the NICU where I worked received a patient who had refused to die for hours after her ‘delivery’- she survived to be discharged months later, but was severely handicapped. The abortion doctor had mistaken her gestation and she was aborted at 24/5 weeks.
That type of admission did not occur again, so I bet the “protocol” was changed, and babies born alive were just not recognized.
Thank you. Nursing is a glorious and selfless calling. Those who are so hardened that they would let a baby die of neglect do not deserve the honor or the title of nurse.
I don't what to call them, but whatever it is, the name couldn't be printed in a family publication.
