A friend told me she saw an article about a doctor operating on a
baby in the womb and it reached it's hand out of the incision and
kept it wrapped around the surgeon's finger for the whole
operation. She said there is a photo of it but that she had deleted
it. Has anyone else here seen the photo or heard this story? That
image gives me chills.

It certainly can be true. With todays medical technology, surgeons are performing more and more intrauterine operations to help enhance the life of the unborn child.
Some fetal surgery iss performed for the following:
Fetal urinary tract obstruction
Congential diaphragmatic hernia
Congential cystic adenomatoid malformation and extralobar pulmonary sequestration
Sacrococcygeal teratoma
Myelomeningocele (spina bifida)
Other neurological conditions.

Yes. It's beautiful. I cry everytime I see that one. Have you read the whole story behind it? And people still abort babies at that gestation too.
