How Ironic

A local woman is suing a Miami abortion clinic after the abortionist failed to show up on time and an actual birth took place. The baby, at 23 weeks, was then placed into a garbage bag, hidden in a closet and left to die. A tip to the police enabled them to discover the body.

The ironic thing is that this mother went to the abortion clinic for the purpose of terminating the life of her child. The end result was exactly as she had intended. However, something happened in the process that changed everything...she saw her baby girl gasping for air. Suddenly, her desire to end this child's life was overwhelmed by a desire to preserve it.

This is why stricter laws are needed to ensure that babies that make it past the mother's womb in an abortion clinic be given every chance of survival. This is why every mother should be given adequate information about the life inside of her. And this is why we should never stop praying and working for the end of abortion.
