In his book Mortal Lessons: Notes on the Art of Surgery (New York: Simon & Shuster) 1976, author Richard Selzer describes watching a saline abortion. He says that after seeing this abortion, the abortionist took him aside.
“Later, in the corridor, the doctor explains that the law does not permit abortions beyond the 24th week. That is when the fetus may be viable, he says. We stand together for a moment, and he tells me of an abortion in which the fetus cried after it was passed.
“What did you do?” I asked him.
“There was nothing to do but let it live,” he says. “It did very well. A case of mistaken dates.”
This exchange was also quoted in Robert M. Baird and Stuart E. Rosenbaum The Ethics of Abortion: Pro-Life vs Pro-Choice. (New York: Prometheus Books 2001) p 24

in my opinion abortionists have no heart. How can they take a life away just for money, but i am glad that, that abortionist let that baby live, maybe that baby is giong to be someone great in the world and thats why he got a chance to live
