Yes, there's a picture that's been floating around e-mail since 2003 that shows a kid's thumbnail-size hand flopped out of a uterus during surgery. The story that goes along with it (that the kid squeezed the surgeon's hand) is false.
This would be a lively starting point for a discussion about why the mother didn't just abort the child. After all, it would be so much easier.
