I am not a fan of the NHS but that is not true premature babies and young children take precidense in British hospitals and we have many specialised units for them.

When dad had his hip op he was told that the reason for the delay was an 8 hour op on a very young, very sick baby but babies always take priority.

Provided they aren’t aborted...

I don’t know the reasons for this inducing, but I find it dubious, at 18 weeks, you are 1 month or less from a fighting chance of viability, and 2 months from an good chance.

I’d like to know what exactly the diagnosis was that lead to recommendation for induction.

Color me skeptical, but forcing an abortion, particularly with no staff around is far more likely to have complications that would harm the mothers life.
