Midwife Shares Horror Stories of Babies Left to Die
Manage episode 484244388 series 3644811
There is evidence of increasing numbers of live births following abortion at both pre-and post-viable gestations in Australia. Only in SA and NSW is there now a positive legal duty to ensure babies who survive their abortion are entitled to medical care and equal treatment under the law. Cathy is a retired midwife from NSW who shares with me her harrowing stories of babies left to die in her hospital. After hearing midwife Lou Adsett’s courageous evidence in Queensland parliament, Cathy reached out to me to share her story. This particular fight to treat newborns who survive their abortion is not about abortion at all. These babies are born.
We are fighting for birth equality: the simple notion that every child born in Australia deserves an equal right to medical care and the protection of the law.
