Premature Child of Cocaine Addicted Mother Survives Abortion. Physician Order: Leave To Die?:"The premature birth of a child under normal circumstances requires highly skilled nursing and medical care if the child is to survive. The birth of a premature child to a known Cocaine addicted mother greatly increased the risks of mortality. In this case, a child intended to be aborted is born alive. When the physician orders that the child be to left to die, it miraculously survives on its own. Were the nurses liable for "following orders?"
