"It's my body," she said.
Wow, isn't that a statement. If she said this in desire to kill her baby it would be full steam ahead. What do you want to bet that this girl will have no say whatsoever in this issue. What do you want to be that the judge will demand that she has this treatment, in spite of what she or her parents want?????? Of course the "it's my body" argument only is relevant when someone wants to murder the young.
She will get no further with this argument than does the cancer patient with pot smoking.

Considering she's 13, her argument deserves to go nowhere.
And her mother - well, anyone who can say with a straight face, "Her body is not standard, and her cancer is not standard," - words fail me.
