Abortion is not healthcare. Abortion intentionally tortures a child to death. Abortion violates a mother's body to rip away her child by unnaturally stretching her cervix or putting her into preterm labor and painfully dismembering her child or poisoning, starving, or scalding her child so that she delivers a dead baby. There is nothing healthy or caring about that. Abortion is the opposite of healthcare in that it intentionally causes death and unnecessary pain and suffering.
There is no reason to intentionally take away the life of a child. Natural childbirth or C-section are safer for both mother and child. It is more dangerous for a mother to deliver a dead baby than a living one, as the living child helps position herself to be born. A C-section is much faster than an abortion that can take three to six days of injecting an overdose of drugs into the child's beating heart and putting the mother into labor. In an ectopic pregnancy, the doctor can attempt to relocate the child into the uterus.
A child will move away from touch as early as seven (7) weeks from conception. This is a tiny infant who has a face, arms, and legs no different than any other child, just tinier. Her skin is more sensitive to touch than it will be once she is born. And she isn't able to block the pain. She has a heartbeat at 21 days from conception - about the time her mother suspects she's pregnant - that will last for the rest of her life. She can hear her mother's voice and feels stressed when her mother is stressed. She is born loving the one who gives her birth.
Healthcare should be about helping people find health. Pregnancy is healthy. Abortion is not healthy. There is nothing healthy about an abortion for the mother, or her child. Every child should be treated as a wanted child where doctors attempt to save all lives and not intentionally take lives. All of us have only one life to live; let's let children live.
There is enough love in the world, enough running water and food, enough loving homes and enough medical advances to give children the same opportunity we want for ourselves - to be loved, valued, and accepted. Let's stop rejecting our own children. Let's be compassionate by wrapping a warm blanket around them and let them know they are welcome in our world. Let's grow our ability to love them. The rewards of being loved by a child is better than the dreams we may have had for ourselves without them.
Real healthcare saves lives; it doesn't destroy them. I've known too many women destroyed by abortion. And too many children are missing. Abortion is violence. Whether it's a gun or a scalpel, it isn't the instrument causing the death, it's the hands using the instrument. Those causing death in the multi-billion dollar abortion industry - if they care anything about women - should stop tearing children and mothers apart and learn how to save lives and promote health, instead.

Rescue those being led away to death, and restrain those stumbling toward the slaughter. If you say, “Behold, we did not know about this,” does not He who weighs hearts consider it? Does not the One who guards your life know? Will He not repay a man according to his deeds? (Proverbs 24:11-12)
