Brazilian girl, 9, to abort twins

The Brazilian girl, who was not identified because she is a minor, was found to be four months pregnant after being taken to hospital suffering stomach pains, the news websites G1, pe360graus and the Diario de Pernambuco reported.
She was being cared for by a medical and psychological team in the Maternal-Child Institude in the northern city of Recife, close to her hometown of Alagoinha in Pernambuco state, they said.
“We don’t know if she will develop the pregnancy up to the end because of the structure of her body. It is a big risk for her,” the doctor who confirmed her pregnancy before she was taken to the institute, Jose Severiano Cavalcanti, told the Diario de Pernambuco.
“She doesn’t have a pelvis able to support a gestation of twins,” he said.
Abortion is illegal in Brazil except in cases of rape or if the woman’s health is in danger.
The institute in Recife was unable to immediately confirm information about the case.






OMG! I’m a twin too and is was so wrong for the step-father to do that. Not to be disrepectful but he is going to go to hell when he dies. By the way, my mom is months pregnant with my baby sister.
OMG! That is some crazy stuff going on around the world. I’m a twin too and it’s so wrong for the step-dad to do that!
