For the past decade, the issue of pro-life has been a major topic of concern for the medical profession. Different opinions and attitudes have varied widely with regards to approving or disapproving termination of a pregnancy based on the each individual situation. The leading causes of termination are usually due to maternal and fetal mortality, pregnancy occurring from rape, or the period of gestation when termination is being carried out. The purpose of this paper is to focus on life as a whole, and how healthcare professionals care for a mother who just aborted a child.
