It would soon become common knowledge that it was a ward purely for abortions.....and can you imagine having to work on that ward all the time?

Yes I understand that Margaret. To be honest, hadn't really thought about it that way. I feel sorry for those people that HAVE to have a abortion due to medical reasons of mother or baby, that is very sad. What I disagree with is someone getting pregnant BY ACCIDENT, then using it as contraception. Yes I agree that in this day and age there shouldn't be any need for BACK STREET ABORTIONS. But then again, in this day and age, there really shouldn't be un planned pregnancies. Condoms, pill, morning after pill, coil jeeeez I could go on. But hey, these things happen. But no, I do not agree with a termination being carried out at 20+ weeks, and I pitty the poor doctors and nurses that have to deal with it too.
