Future of George Tiller's clinic is unclear

The future of the clinic run by slain abortion doctor George Tiller was clouded Tuesday when his family issued a statement saying no decisions had been reached about what's next for Women's Health Care Services. The message countermanded earlier statements that the clinic would resume normal operations next Monday by physician LeRoy Carhart, who had worked with Tiller for more than 10 years. Carhart travels from Nebraska for a few days every three weeks to work at the clinic. The doctors who worked with George Tiller want to keep his mission alive in some fashion. With Tiller's death, there are fewer than 10 doctors -- including Carhart -- who perform third-trimester abortions in the United States. Wichita Eagle
