Today, Mothers' Day, in Melbourne a newborn baby girl was abandoned outside a hospital in Melbourne. The baby girl was found wrapped in towels and placed in a cardboard box.
The story has made national headlines - it happens so infrequently. Police and the nurse who found her have appealed for the mother to come forward to receive medical treatment. It is all very sad.
But what makes me sadder is to think about how many times this has happened today, and every other day, in China and it warrants not a peep, it doesn't cause a ripple. And instead of making instant national headlines, these babies will get a small grainy newspaper advertisement in a couple of months asking their birth parents to come forward.
It is all so sad...
