Last week, at a hospital appointment, while taking my history, a nurse questioned why I hadn't terminated my pregnancy after my daughter was diagnosed with Down's Syndrome. The words 'risk of a Downs' were used. This is Betsy. The child she was referring to. Loving life ❤️
Astounded that some have chosen to turn this into an abortion 'terms' debate. How dare you suggest that I shouldn't refer to my unborn baby with Down's Syndrome as a 'child'. Psychopathic.
Anyone else want to tell me that I am not allowed to say I was asked to kill my unborn baby? Feminists? Really? Unless you're a woman having a baby with a disability and then you must be silenced.
