An Inclusive Litany
3/25/02
The New York Times Magazine
published an article on new in utero surgical techniques that
can correct many congenital defects that may otherwise lead parents to
abort. The article featured a dramatic photograph of a surgeon's
gloved fingers holding the hand of then-24-week-old Abigail Hasten as
it protruded from the womb of her mother, Kelly. The caption read
simply, "Dr. Joseph Bruner with Kelly Hasten's uterus."
