Bob, I understand what you are saying. I am trying not to make this an emotional discussion. I simply want to understand what "rights" are in these situations. Some firmly believe that a woman has a choice as long as the baby is in her body. My question to Del is not intended to conjure up feelings but to practically examine the issue at hand. Does a mother have the right to deny life to a viable fetus? If the answer is yes, at what point does she lose this right? Tom

>>"Personally, I cannot imagine how anyone could do that procedure. Letting the head come out but not the body, then shoving a scissors into it's brain and see it jerk and spasm as it dies."<< That's how I felt when the Doctor circumcised me. Jim

Bob, When I was delivering my first child, there were complications, which lead them to do a Cesarean Section. While they were performing the operation.........at the teaching hospital where I was. A student nurse, decides to ask How they would have handled cases like this in years gone by. (This did not seem to me to be the best place for a question such as this to be ask) The older nurse attending the procedure, promptly replied to the student nurse, "Well, chances are they would have lost both mother and child." ( I was further convinced this was even less the place to answer such a question) Irrgardless.....I could have never chosen to have a "Partical birth abortion" (the Procedure which T.A. describes in his post) even if at that point it meant my own life......I would have had to take my chances. As it turned out this day in age........both mother and daughter had a total recovery!!! It is astounding to me......that indeed partial birth abortions are legal and occurring with-in this country. ~~Neenny~~
