Surrogate claims gay dads told her to terminate pregnancy at 24 weeks on finding out she had aggressive cancer and barred her from having baby prematurely or putting it up for adoption because 'they didn't want their DNA out there'

A California mother has claimed she was told to terminate her surrogate pregnancy at 24 weeks by the child's prospective fathers after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Brittney Pearson, 37, from Sacramento told DailyMail.com that she was diagnosed with breast cancer in May at 22 weeks.

She says that after a full body MRI revealed the extent of the disease, the gay couple who were paying her to carry their child used legal threats to pressure her into terminating the pregnancy.

Initially, Pearson claims, doctors at Sutter Health Medical Centre in Sacramento, believed she would be able to have a form of chemotherapy treatment compatible with pregnancy, and would then be induced at 34 weeks gestation.

The prospective fathers, who haven't been named but are from Southern California, were allegedly happy for her to receive treatment and continue with the pregnancy.

However, when medics realized the HER2+ cancer had spread further than expected and that more aggressive chemo would be needed to combat it, relations between Pearson and the prospective parents broke down.

The unnamed gay couple, Pearson claims, wanted the baby 'immediately terminated' and 'erased' as they believed it had no chance at life.

They did not want a baby born before 34 weeks because they allegedly feared the infant would have considerable health problems, it is claimed.

The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network, an anti-surrogacy group which first reported on Pearson's case, claims the prospective fathers also sought to bar Pearson from carrying the child to term, then giving it up for adoption.

Their DNA? Biology is obviously not their strong suit.

This is California so anything goes.

The rule should be simple. A child needs a mother and a parent.

Two fathers or two mothers won't work even if they are the best parents in the world.

She rented out her uterus then complains that she feels like a rented uterus. Total disconnect, but God can fix that. I pray that she can take care of her family, cancer-free and with God’s guidance.

look, no woman with any moral compass or common sense would ever agree to be a surrogate for two homosexuals....biology tells us that two homosexuals can not be parents so why are we pretending....

we have to follow the science until they don't want us to follow the science.

I find it interesting that husbands do not have any rights when it comes to determining whether his child should be aborted, but in California, gay surrogate “parents” should.

It’s more like “You can have the baby. We won’t pay”.

Seems pretty clear the birth was induced and NOT an abortion:

"Pearson told DailyMail.com she found a hospital that would deliver her baby, but would not elaborate on whether or not the procedure was inducement or termination, and whether or not the fetus was born alive.
She would only confirm that it has since died.
'The baby was born on Father’s Day, my mother got to hold him and take pictures but he did not survive' she explained. "

"... the gay couple who were paying her to

Why are Americans allowing this madness to occur?

Their DNA? Biology is obviously not their strong suit.

In most of these cases, the two guy's sperm is mixed together and placed into the surrogate. So yes, their, or at least one of them's DNA.
