MELBOURNE, Australia, November 23, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A 32-week set of twins were both aborted after staff at an Australian hospital initially killed the healthy twin by accident, and then also aborted the sick sibling after realizing their mistake, reports the Herald Sun.

The paper reports that the mother of the children was told that one of her twin children had a congenital heart defect that would require years of surgery, and that the child may not survive.

After she decided to have the child aborted, doctors then gave the wrong child the lethal injection.

When hospital staff realized the mistake, the woman reportedly underwent an emergency c-section, and the sick child was also aborted.

A friend of the woman told the Sun: “She went to the hospital with two babies and now she has none.”

“And she had the heartache of giving birth to her sick baby. She’s traumatised.”

A hospital spokeswoman said: “The Royal Women’s Hospital can confirm a distressing clinical accident occurred (on Tuesday).

“This is a terrible tragedy and the hospital is deeply sorry for the loss suffered by the patient and her family.”

Sorry, all my sympathy is for the tow aborted children. I won’t even call this human being a ‘mother’.

So sad. How often in life we try hard to make the decision to try to make a situation better and wind up making it worse.

Why would anyone think it a good idea to murder a viable full term child because he appears to have a heart defect?

Aren’t third trimester abortions illegal?

Biblically, if you kill someone who is dying, you still committed murder.

And her innocent babies are dead.

I once worked with an engineer who had a congenital heart defect. They never expected him to survive past infancy. He’s a GREAT guy. Any mother would be blessed to have him as her son even if had been for only a few hours. It’s too bad this mother didn’t understand that.

Abortion by c-section? I’ve never heard of that.

No doubt the woman is traumatized. She planned to murder one of her babies and ended up killing both. My guess is the guilt will destroy her. Of course, that is assuming she has a conscience which is doubtful since she wanted to kill one of her babies at 32 weeks.
