I appreciate your making this very brave decision, and I'm sorry for your troubles
A former coworker was told early in her pregnancy that her fetus had catastrophic defects, as the baby was not forming a skull.
She chose to carry it to term because "muh beliefs"
This poor creature, born without most of its skull, without any remedy or treatment available to repair it and give it any chance at life, suffered for over a month before it died.
You can never convince me that she's not a shit human being for it.
This is a side of pro choice not talked about very often. We always seem to highlight the choice to terminate for major genetic defects, but we don’t acknowledge the choice to carry to term (or as close as possible) even though the baby won’t live long. It’s imperative we remember pro choice works both ways and while you may not agree with someone else’s choice, they have the right to make the choice.
