I was born, in 1980, three months early, at the very beginning of the 27^th week of pregnancy. As I have explored in my book on prematurity and creativity, Sent Before Their Time, it would’ve been legal, in 1980, for me to have been aborted. In fact, one nurse insensitively referred to me, in front of my mother, as a “miscarriage.” At 6 months gestation, the lungs aren’t developed properly and nor is much else, hence I spent two months in an incubator and have mild cerebral palsy. So, at one month premature, I was out of hospital. Yet the British government has just passed law which makes abortion legal no matter the length of gestation. Some babies are born a few weeks late but, with this vote, as long as they’re in the womb they can be executed with impunity.
