Hospitals around the world volunteered to abort Beatriz&#8217;s disabled child, saying, in effect, &#8220;let us kill your baby for you.&#8221; El Salvador rebuffed this international bully ring of abortion activists and treated both Beatriz and her pre-born child in the only proper way for a nation that honors human rights: by treating both the mother and the child as equal patients.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">El Salvador has shown what true medical compassion looks like, all while keeping in line with medical science and plain common sense. Hundreds of doctors in Ireland, another pro-life country, recently published the Dublin Declaration, which states unequivocally that abortion is never needed to save a woman&#8217;s life. These doctors have agreed that we don&#8217;t have to pit the mother&#8217;s life against the child: we can strive to protect them both. Here in the United States, Dr. Anthony Levatino, a reformed abortionist, testified that over the course of more than 1,200 abortions, he never had to commit a single one to save the mother.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Beatriz case reinforces once again the humanity, compassion, and good sense that come from a nation respecting the dignity and equality of all human life. El Salvador has established itself as a human rights leader, and I pray that all the world&#8217;s nations, including our own, will follow this country&#8217;s heroic example.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: JUNE 4, 2013 CONTACT: MEDIA@LIVEACTION.ORG SALVADORAN SUPREME COURT PROTECTS LIVES OF BOTH MOTHER AND CHILD HISTORIC DECISION FROM PRO-LIFE LATIN AMERICAN NATION Statement from Live Action President Lila Rose: The Supreme Court of El Salvador has made the just and commendable decision in the case of 22-year-old Beatriz and her baby.
