So you think IVF is a good trade off for people like Kate who had to leave the state to have an abortion when her child would surely not survive outside the womb?
I’ve got two daughters and a daughter-in-law. Fortunately we’ve never been in a position to even consider abortion. But if one of my daughters had been in a situation where their child wouldn’t have survived, I would not want her to bear the burden of having to carry that child to term. Would you?
Well, of course, I never said anything like that. Yes, I believe that there can be some discussion about unviable fetuses. But I also know a woman whose otherwise healthy baby died when the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck. She bore the stillborn child and buried him. That was incredibly sad, but it would have been exponentially worse to have torn the little boy to pieces.
Yes, we both know there's anectdotal evidence for both sides. But when Ken Paxton thinks he's smarter than the doctors, we have a huge problem.
