Ok, I have terminal cancer, I guess I should kill my 9 and 5 year old because I wouldn't want them to grow up without a father

NO GREATER love has a woman than this; That she should lay down her life for another.
-- Jesus (paraphrased)
There is also a risk that this cancer may be passed on to the unborn child, it is rare, but especially if it shares the same genetic predisposition to this cancer. This is not about left or right leaning, it is about this woman sacrificing herself. I could understand if this was a late term pregnancy, but she stands a chance at saving her life and having another child later and get the pleasure of seeing at least the first child grow up. Interesting is that the same ones that think this is an abortion issue and that those thinking she is making a mistake are liberals are the same ones that tend to not support welfare or the poor or the right to die. You only care about the unborn, but once it is born and a citizen, it is on its own. I feel that she should save her life, mourn the loss of this unborn infant, love the child she has and go from there if she wants another child. I know most mothers would step in front of a raging bull to save her child, but this woman can save her own life. How does an unborn child become more important then ones own life?

This mother was selfless, something lefties are unfamiliar with.
She certainly was not selfless - especially with respect to her existing children. Get familiar with that.

I agree; this was not a selfless act. However, that was her choice and I'm glad she had a choice.

That's one perspective. The other is that the child has a chance to live and do great things. This is the thing I hate about abortion discussions, which is why I try and avoid them; everyone goes in thinking they're the only one's who could ever be right.

This woman's situation was unpleasant, which is a word that doesn't do her situation justice at all, and the results weren't going to be ideal no matter what he choice ended up being.

With libs, the "choice" must ALWAYS be, "KILL THE DAMN KID!"

She made the "choice" to sacrifice her own life so that her CHILD may live. From the left, this only earns her contempt.

What about her other children? Do they matter at all? Or just the fetus?

BS. being pro choice is supporting a woman's right to choice, abortion is only one choice. BS blanket statements like yours are disingenuous.

many women here pro choice or not, would not make the same choice based on the need of their living family. some women would. it's called choice.

personal pregnancy choices are as individual as the woman herself.

She made her decision. Choice is choice.

Libs are pro-CHOICE.

This woman made her own choice.....that is what pro-CHOICE is all about, therefore, no contempt....AT ALL.

Here is what is scary, there are conservative pro-lifers who would rather have had the government make that choice for her.....by force. Pregnant? No chemo for you.
