I don't see the Church's response to the abortion as considering the 9 year old's life worthless, more valuing the twins she carried. (And I'm not saying I agree with the Church, but the logical is faulty to make that leap.)
Not knowing the story, was her life medically in jeopardy or was risk of injury and health issues more the situation. The Church does accept abortion in cases of a woman's life being threatened, from what I understand of doctrine.
