They found out later she did not have Cancer or any other medical urgency to take the baby.
It was a boy.
My Grandmother had a nervous breakdown, from which she did not recover for a long time.
She had a third child and suffered postpartum depression ,so great she was hospitalized for almost a year. She never was able to break the constant guilt and depression that resulted from the loss of her son.
My mother, her third child missed the bonding experience of her mother, and my Mother suffered from those repercussions her entire life.
OF course there are some cases where taking the child does save the mother's life... And in the case of rape, where the woman should be given a choice.
These cases are hard to grasp, but IMO, the reality is there are few cases where I could understand the loss of a baby.
Anything less to me is an excuse, and has far reaching consequences.
Teenagers who acidently get pregnant need to be told to see it through, or they will suffer their entire lives.
