So. I wonder if/when they found out the baby was deformed. Was it before she collapsed? Maybe she wanted to keep it regardless and he didn’t. How, precisely, did she collapse? Did the husband have anything to do with that?

Just some questions I have.

You and me both. I’d like to know more about the circumstances of her ‘collapse’. And when she/they found out about any developmental abnormalities. And if her wishes to avoid life support would have included being pregnant at the time. And were these wishes in writing?

Questions.

If she wanted to kill the baby, she would have had an abortion. She didn’t. She wanted the baby to live. Why assume now that she wants the baby dead?

No not 22 weeks

that is miracle survival, viability is now at about 24-25 weeks and even that is slim

if the baby can make it another 6 weeks it has a good chance
that is why this family is stepping it up
got to murder her child in the 2d trimester
“she would have wanted it that way”
shur

Daddy wants to move on, unencumbered by a baby, so he is trying desperately to prevent that little from exiting alive to the air world. If daddy has his way, the child will never get asked ... but I do like your way of posing that conundrum!

“No baby has ever survived “a lot younger” than 22 weeks. Earliest survival is 23 weeks and change”

21 weeks, 5 days.

she didnt leave directives

it is all hearsay by her family that she never wanted to live this way

well, d’oh, who does?

But bet they never asked her if she was pregnant and the baby had a chance, would she want them to pull the plug?

I just don’t get this family
They do not deserve that child, for sure
There are adopters waiting for the baby regardless of his condition

I hope they do a test to make sure the baby is in fact his before making any decisions.

Erick Munoz should be shunned by any man who is a man regardless of whether he wins or loses this despicable lawsuit seeking judicial permission to slaughter his own unborn infant.

Personally, I don’t care if the alive child is barry soetoro’s bastard child, the child is an alive human being and ought to be protected. That is one cold sonofabitch working so hard to kill that unborn child.

I don’t care whose kid he/she is, either. All I know is that this sniveling excuse for a human being is trying way too hard to get rid of his wife and her child.

This is a tough one.

A. Dad has no rights. Ever. In anything.

B. But to not kill mom and baby, admits that baby is indeed baby and not clump of cells, tissue or whatever term is fashionable these days.

Either sets a bad precedent for the moonbats.

The judge just ruled the family can take her off life support. I have to believe that the doctors testified that the baby has no chance of survival. I just have to believe this. I am so sorry that this baby has to die. It would not have been my decision. I would have not ruled this way. I pray God will not let this baby die in pain.

The woman died a natural death. I don't think he was trying to “get rid” of her. God decided it was her time and she happened to be pregnant. In the old days it would have been the natural thing for the baby to die with the mother. It's nature and God's way. I think it's quite bizarre what they are doing. I'm not for abortion either, I just think this is a sad circumstance

The Munoz family already have a child. This was going to be their second child.

Yes, the woman is dead. As to the naturalness of the death, I will not say it was or wasn’t. But when God has given us the technology to preserve nascent life, shouldn’t it be society’s duty to do everything its power to protect this life? The child is by no means dead. Should we just do things medically according to what has been done in the past? C-sections have been done to dead women...should we just let these children die? The judge has no good reason to sanction this child’s death.

It’s a hard situation, but I think the family should be able to do what they want without government interference. Yes, we have all these life saving abilities now, but sometimes I just think it’s best to let nature take it’s course.
