Sister Margaret McBride has been demoted from her position at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, AZ after participating in the approval of an abortion for a critically ill patient in 2009.
McBride was part of the hospital ethics committee that approved an abortion for a patient with pulmonary hypertension, which can be made fatal by pregnancy. Hospital officials say the procedure was necessary to save the patient's life.
