I spent 20 years working in a children's hospital, many of them as an NICU unit-based respiratory therapist.  I can assure you that no baby born with a terminal or developmental issue is left to suffer as they die.  Care (medications) are given to ease any suffering they might experience, to make dying not painful. When we are talking about abortion, we should not make generalities or speculate about 'what if's'.  Either killing a baby by not caring for it is wrong, or it's not, regardless of any conditions it might be born with.  Leaving them to suffer as they die, even it's only for a hour, is unconscionable.
