Legal abortion is going to take center stage during Thursday’s State of the Union address. The first lady and Senator Patty Murray (D., Wash.) are each bringing as a guest a woman who recently obtained an out-of-state abortion after learning her preborn child had serious fetal anomalies. President Biden, Democratic elected officials, and countless media commentators will doubtless highlight the tragic stories of these women in an attempt to generate greater support for permissive abortion laws.
However, what will receive far less attention is the compassionate option of perinatal hospice for pregnant women who receive adverse prenatal diagnoses. Indeed, many women who receive the tragic news that their preborn son or daughter has a life-limiting condition seek the services of perinatal hospice. Perinatal hospices provide both professional counseling and health care. Importantly, they give women the life-affirming option to carry their pregnancies to term.
Our forthcoming Family Research Council study surveyed 82 women who recently obtained services through perinatal hospice. We found that perinatal hospices offered a range of valuable resources to women. These included counseling, sonograms, prayer, support groups, and a birth plan. High percentages of women found each of these services “very helpful.” Overall, 83 percent felt that perinatal hospice was “very supportive” emotionally. Additionally, 67 percent found that perinatal hospice services were “very helpful” in the grieving process.
Disappointingly, our study found that a high percentage of women who received an adverse prenatal diagnosis were advised by medical professionals to obtain an abortion. In many cases, women received this advice repeatedly. Only a relatively small percentage of the time were they encouraged to carry their pregnancy to term. Similarly, only a small percentage of women received information about perinatal hospice from their ob-gyn.
Given that, increasing the awareness of perinatal hospice among policy-makers, health-care professionals, the general public is an important and worthwhile goal for the pro-life movement. It will give women who obtain adverse prenatal diagnoses more options. Furthermore, it will hopefully result in a higher percentage of these women making the life-affirming choice of perinatal hospice for both themselves and their preborn children.
Another reason NOT to watch … disgusting
I will withhold my comments about these promoters of bloody butchers. Wickedness is in our midst...
It will be EXTRA hot where Joe is going.
PDJT has the right take on abortions.
You said it!
And it will go on forever.
Calling Dr. Mengele.
Actually Dr. Mengele would have have good standing with the current Dimrat party. Along with Dr. Fauci and Dr. Biden.
I hope my sister watches. She’s a Trump hating Biden voter and is also disabled, born with a birth defect, no thigh on one leg. Made a lot of money in real estate, married a handsome successful man.
She should have been killed before birth?
This speech will probably be about race (blacks), a Palestinian state (pro-Hamas), abortion (women), climate and green energy (enviro-wackos), and probably college loans being waived (young voters).
The modern progressives are no different from Hitler’s Third Reich.
👍
Can someone post where to go to see trumps play by play response to POTATUS heads state of union lies?

Revelation 20:12-15
King James Version
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and Death and Hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And Death and Hell were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the Second Death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire.

If they add mental derangement, there will soon be no more Demonrats.
What Biden is saying is that now that he is mentally unfit, he is eligible for a post birth abortion. Such a post birth abortion is equality for the deranged old man
