    The vast majority of those abortions performed after 21 weeks are due to medical issues and fetal non-viability. Women who make it to 20+ weeks of pregnancy virtually always want the baby, and an abortion is an incredibly sad and heartbreaking medical necessity at that point. I know someone who had to have a later abortion of a very much wanted child because the fetus didn’t develop a brain.

      And I know someone who, due to conservative propaganda, gave birth to a child without a brain. They attempted to keep it alive and it actually lasted a few weeks before dying. It was awful.
