Irish Doctors refused to follow an unworkable law and kill an unborn baby in the 2nd trimester because the suicidal mother wanted an abortion. They proceeded to treat her following evidence-based medicine and psychiatry. At the mother's renewed suicidal thoughts, and following the new law, they terminated the pregnancy at 24 weeks by c/section and handed Baby to waiting Pediatricians. Baby is being cared for in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
It is a tragic case but abortion is not a cure for suicidal feelings. There's no evidence! Irish doctors are not being allowed to practice Evidence-based Medicine!
The pro-choice lobby is angry. The pregnancy was terminated; they should be happy, because in their world view, the mother should now be CURED of suicidal thoughts as she is no longer pregnant. But they are not happy, as outlined below.
I feel sorry for this poor woman, as she herself may have had the impression that an abortion would cure her, and the prochoice lobby are shamelessly promoting this bad medicine.
