Leslie Herrera, Pediatric ICU Nurse - When a Baby is Actually a Baby.

  • Summary

  • When is a baby a baby and other abortion-related questions. In this episode we talk about a lot of topics surrounding the reversal of Roe V Wade. We postulate the reasoning behind it, and we discuss Leslie's general thoughts on it before and after working as a pediatric nurse in the ICU.

    Leslie sees babies coming into the intensive care unit who have just been born and who some of which, might possibly have been better off not so...I know that is a hard statement to stomach, it's not easy for me to say or write either. When we think about abortion though, I think many people have a unidirectional view - that is, they consider only the irresponsible people who are playing recklessly with the lives of the unborn and assume that every baby brought into the world will be better for it.

    Many people, people who are making the decisions for the rest of us, don't seem to consider how children brought into a life of instability, hostility, and impairment, may in reality not be better for it. Additionally, how those surrounding them may not be better for it. These conversations, while uncomfortable at times, are things we need to be analyzing and sorting through so as to come to our own distinct and educated opinions surrounding matters that, in this case, are life and death.
