One question...

I thought that some states have a law that if any "fetus" past a certain age, especially during 3rd trimester would have to be "C sectioned" and if the resulting child can breathe on its own without massive help other than the neonatal, preemie oxygen tube, then the medical community MUST keep the child alive? Am I wrong?

On that know, I know a woman that was forced to give birth to her child at 5-6 months in the womb. And the child was on "respiration" and many other things for a good solid 6 months... Until all its organs could function on its own... I met the child when he was 2-3 years of age... So it is possible for some preemies to survive when removed from the womb at late 2nd and during 3 trimesters... How it is exactly done, I dunno...
