OB-GYN: No Medical Situation Requires Aborting or Killing the Baby in 3rd Trimester
I was stunned watching the debates to see how readily Hillary Clinton was to show approval of partial-birth abortions right up until the time of the baby’s birth. And I was thrilled to hear Donald Trump say with conviction, “That’s not OK with me!”
In 1973, I graduated from Christian Academy with Larry Koning. Now he’s Dr. Lawrence Koning, M.D., and an OB/GYN specialist in Corona, California. After watching the same debate last night, he posted a quote on his personal Facebook page, which I share below.
This morning I asked Lawrence if I could share it with our readers. He thought about it only for a moment and sent back this message, “Do it!”
Dr. Lawrence Koning wrote:
October, 20, 2016: “As an OB/GYN physician for 31 years, there is no medical situation that requires aborting / killing the baby in the third trimester to ‘save the mother’s life.’ Just deliver the baby by C-section and the baby has 95+% survival with readily available NICU care even at 28 weeks. C-section is quicker and safer than partial birth abortion for the mother.”-Dr. Lawrence K. Koning, MD, FACOG
Lord, let there be more godly physicians willing to go public with their convictions! {eoa}
