Yeah, I think I can judge that action as wrong. Amazingly I can also judge all health care providing abortionists actions as "wrong." Because there is right and wrong in this world, a fact that many physicians would like to ignore (thank God there are good doctor's too and that we have managed to find one). However in both of the stories I've read the problem is that the date seemed arbitrary and the doctor's even admitted that if the baby was a couple days older they would at least "try" regardless of the equipment. <br /><br />You don't seem to have all the facts either my friend and I am certainly glad that you aren't MY heathcare provider.Cammie Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137080807945525006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188078120365131355.post-67256198084058762122009-10-31T14:50:56.000-04:002009-10-31T14:50:56.000-04:00as health care professionals, we NEVER make decisi...as health care professionals, we NEVER make decisions about providing care for babies based on financial concerns. Until you have the professional knowledge regarding the pathophysiology and what actually happens to these babies that are born this early, you have no right whatsoever making judgements regarding this physicians decisions. The babies that are born this early are most likely NOT VIABLE. I recently cared for a baby that was born at 23 weeks that we did everything for and it died. It wasn't viable, but we still tried. There is a certain point where you can't do anything. The equipment isn't small enough. Sometimes you just can't do anything.

Baby A passed away in the womb, and they made her deliver due to her temperature spiking and fear of infection. Baby B was born and lay on her chest for 45 minutes, alive, before he passed away. The doctors said that their airways were too small for neo-natal tubes, and they would be hurting the babies more. My sister-in-law was absolutely devastated. She lost another set of twins at 23 weeks, but they babies both died in the womb before the doctors had a chance at saving them. What sickens me even more is that the insurance/doctors were fighting a war of coverage because the insurance companies said they wouldn't cover her to be on bed-rest in the hospital since the babies were not yet at a viable age.<br /><br />There are people who do more in this country for dogs than they will for children.Delenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08893036321616359439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188078120365131355.post-20642699838361694162009-10-15T00:26:08.389-04:002009-10-15T00:26:08.389-04:00I have no idea how anyone could justify what this ...I have no idea how anyone could justify what this doctor did.
