Baby Survives Abortion

A mother who decided to abort her son because he may have inherited a life-threatening kidney condition is overjoyed that he survived the procedure.

Jodie Percival of Nottinghamshire, England, said she and her fiancee made the decision to abort baby Finley when she was eight weeks pregnant.

Percival's first son Thane died of multicystic dysplastic kidneys - which causes cysts to grow on the kidneys of an unborn baby - and her second child Lewis was born with serious kidney damage and currently has just one kidney, the Daily Mail reported.
