The Definition of Life

The Supreme Court of New Jersey heard a case this week that could impact what information a doctor is required to give a woman before an abortion is performed. According to this article physician Sheldon Turkish told Rosa Acuna that her embryo was "only blood" in response to her question about whether "the baby was already there". The lawsuit brought by Acuna states that she suffered "severe emotional and psychological trauma" after nurses told her the physician had "left parts of the baby inside of her". It will be interesting to see how the NJ high court rules on this one.
