re: #453 Slumbering Behemoth

And if the “baby” is non viable? Dead in the womb, or disfigured/malformed to the point that it would survive for only a very short and very painful amount of time outside the womb? What then?

I have a relative who faced this exact situation - a severly deformed baby that would not have a long life outside the womb. Her faith and religion was such that she could not “terminate” the baby - it was “in God’s hands.” She had the baby, it never came off a respirator, lived for about 3 months and then died. She insists today that she did the right thing.
