Thank you so very much for posting this comment here. Those who want to kill an unborn child, those who demand life without risk, those who demand a perfect outcome on every single event in their lives, will always find it easier to kill an unborn child “in self-defense” than to go through the necessary treatments, inconvenience and discomfort of nurturing the child through to viable birth.
This was true in the 70s and it is true now. Those arguing ectopic pregnancy are ignoring the REAL problem in this case: pregnancy related hypertension. At 11 weeks, there would not even be the issue of weight gain.
If there was enough time to convene a committee then it couldn’t have been a major emergency.
Keep in mind, most of the dramatic rhetoric in this case is coming from a Gannett newspaper.
