if women have a ‘right to decide what to do with their own bodies’ in order to ‘save their lives due to ‘dangerous pregnancies’- then why don’t dying patients have a right to try everything possible to try to save their lives?

Good rhetorical question. And note — one is trying to END a life and the other is trying to SAVE lives.

1) Statistically speaking, there are few ‘life threatening’ pregnancies.
2) Why should only the DYING be afforded their Rights to the drugs/procedures/etc. they and their doctors believe best, or even personally wish to give a try?

One might not be dying w/ chronic migraine headaches, but damn if the opportunity should be passed up because GOVT hasn’t approved of XYZ.
