ER Stories: “Every now and again, we all are treated to some horrific story of a baby being abandoned by a young teen-aged mother. Sometimes it appears that the girl is in total denial about even being pregnant – hence the apparent “justification” for doing such a terrible thing. Well, one night last year, we had one of these patients.”

This happened just this week, but the mother is 29, the baby was delivered in the ER restroom and subsequently discarded right in the ER restroom wastebasket.
