Powerful Before-And-After Portraits Of Premature Babies
Depending on when they are born, premature babies can face difficult uphill battles. As Quebec-based photographer Red Methot shows in his Les Premas photo series, premature babies often do overcome their many challenges and persevere!
The photo series has people of widely varying ages pose with photos of themselves as premature babies. In most, the trappings of the hospital ICU are still present. Premature babies can be born with under-developed organs, and are usually held in the ICU until their organs have developed fully.

Women don't have late term abortions unless their lives are at risk you idiot. The women who have to have the late abortion wanted to have the babies in the first place. Women who want an abortion do so at a MUCH earlier time when the fetus IS still just a clump of cells and tissues. It's barely a human being yet. Leave our bodies alone! It's OUR own damn decision what we want to do with them. No one else. Respect a woman's right to choose. No matter what that choice is.
