Hi Bernardo
Thanks for your post and your support.
Re: Third trimester abortions. They are about 1% of all abortions and ONLY happen when there is a potential life-threatening condition developing for the women. Do ya think that, after carrying, in one's body, a fetus that you hope will become a healthy child, a wanted child, that a woman would willing, happily abort it. No way. A women does this when it becomes dangerous to her, or, and this is probably more important, dangerous for her child.
There are some conditions, rare conditions, that only become evident during the third trimester.
How absolutely absurd, weird, convoluted this whole discussion is.
And finally, how appalling is the ignorance, the willful ignorance of those making the rules.
