Different things cause many people to think about abortion.

Depending
on the circumstances and the situation one might find a abortion the
right thing to do. Many things are factors behind this such as rape,
health issues, or a life and death choice. Do to these senerios, I believe
that adults 18 or older should hold the power in behind making this
decision. Some may disagree but who are we to judge their reasoning.
My Late-Term Abortion; Gretchen Voss "My Late-term Abortion - Our Bodies
Ourselves." Our Bodies Ourselves. N.p., n.d. Web. 09 Nov. 2014.

A married couple had been expecting for 18 weeks. There next

appointment schedule was the appointment every mother looked
foward to, figuring out the sex of there child. The couple was not
mentally prepared for what would take place on this day. As the
technician moved the probe around her belly the mood of the room
changed. She later walked out the room to grab the doctor, the doctor
later delievered the horrifying news that their baby had a health
deffect. The ultrasound had shown that the fetus had an open neural
tube defect, in other words the spinal cord did not close properly. In
hopes that their would be more possitive news, the couple contatced a
specialists in boston. Where they would travel only to face more
heartbreaking news, instead of hearing how their baby could overcome
this disorder with therapy and a little more time and affection they
were told about the terms hydrocephalus, and spina bifida. It was truly
a gamble with life or death, the doctors had no clue if the baby would

make it out alive and if so it would most defiantly be paraliyzed.

Countless surgeries would take place if the baby did make it ou alive,
and the couple made their last parental decison and terminated the
pregnancy. November 5th of 2011 George W. Bush signed the first
federal ban on any abortion, and the first ban of surgical techinque
known in this country.
Life of the Mother "Exception" "Life of the Mother "Exception"" Life of the
Mother Abortion "Exception" N.p., n.d. Web. 09 Nov. 2014.

Life of the Mother, gives you different situations of how the

mother and babies lives were at danger. The doctors main goal is to
keep both of them alive, but if the mothers life is indanger critically
they will then induce her labor. There is no aboriotnist during the
surgical procedure there is only an OBGYN. Removing the baby out of
the harms way of the mother is not the same as killing the baby. When
saving the mother, the doctor never intends to kill the baby but it often
results in the death of the premature baby. Due to the early birth the
baby is not yet all the way devoloped and isnt neccesarily ready to
breathe on its own just yet. It all comes down to saving at least one life
or loosing both lives. In an ectopic pregnancy most babies tragicaly
die, and without proper care the mother may also die.
Why Women Choose Abortion - Reasons Behind the Abortion Decision "Top 3
Reasons Women Choose Abortion." About. N.p., n.d. Web. 08 Nov. 2014.

Most woman choose to abort due to not being finacially stable,

or a negative impact on the mothers life. If a mother is single and is

struggling to hold herself, she wont feel like she can meet all the
requirements of being a mother, especially being a single mother.
Saving for a baby and an unlanned pregnancy are two different things
and most certaintly have two different outcomes. Living at home with
your parents still in college isnt the ideal state a mother should be in.
Most women want to provide for their children giving them everything
they want and need, if they feel like they would fall short of that it will
affect the upbringing of the child. A child should have not just one but
both parents apart of there life, bringing a child into an unstable
enviornment or with only one parent is looked at as cruelty. The most
common and simple reasoning of why women choose to abort is
because they simply arent ready to be a parent just yet.

Uterine Cancer; ." Decision Scenarios. N.p., n.d. Web. 09 Nov. 2014.

In summary of this scenario, the mother was having difficulties

during her pregnancy she was only four months in. Her doctor took the
normal blood and tissue test. The news came back and it wasnt what
they had been expecting at all. The mother was in the early stage of
uterine cancer. There was an operation that could be performed to get
rid of the cancer and raise the percentage of the cancer ever coming
back but she would have to terminate the pregnancy. If thats the route
she would take then she would never be able to carry a child again. If
she went ahead with the pregnancy there was no guarantee that the
operation would serve its purpose. She could have the surgery and
possibly never recover fully and later on die due to the advancement of
the cancer.

Selective abortion of a twin that has down syndrome; "Decision Scenarios."

Decision Scenarios. N.p., n.d. Web. 09 Nov. 2014.

In this passage a lady was pregnant with twins, she had every
test ran that was possible to do before birth so make sure she will have
a normal healthy baby. She came to discover that one of the twins had
tisomy 21, in other words had down syndrome. She decided to abort
that disabled fetus by using a long needled inserted into the mother

abdomen and ejected into the fetus heart. It doesnt harm the other
fetus and it does not harm the mother. Most people would claim that
its misusing medicine but the abortionist who perform procedures like
this would disagree, they argue that it would be cruel to knowingly
bring a disabled baby into this world knowing it wont be healthy or be
able to live a normal life.
