Re: When pro-choice is anti-life

I'm curious whether you'd say the same thing if the baby was normal and closer to term? Personally I'd think there's a big difference between providing a few more weeks to a child who has a good chance of surviving and thriving, versus trying to salvage a severely blighted fetus over a span of several months, but that's just me.

The way I see it, if the woman is dead and the baby can be saved, that is, taken out of her and put in an incubator if it needs it? Then yes. Do that. If the normal practice is to keep the woman on life support for the last few weeks, okay. I'm not sure how everything would work because I'm not a medical professional, but okay. Basically: do what is best to save the mother and the baby--if one can't be saved, do what is best to save the other. But in this case, the pregnant woman died, and so did her future baby. It was just a slow death. So what's "best", imo, would be to let it die naturally and not drag it out.

I think you and I are basically agreeing, yes?

Pretty much, yeah.

DA who agreed

In my opinion, no matter the length of time, any action taken should be the family's decision. There should be no outside debate, legal or otherwise. In this case, if the family had wanted to keep her on life support because they were desperate to keep the fetus alive, in my mind that would have been their choice. Since they didn't, that should have also been their choice. No debate.

Personally, I find the idea of a few days or even weeks more palatable and more understandable than what happened here, but my view of that is irrelevant because it is not my family.
