There is a great article in the September issue of Marie Claire magazine. It is a two-part article which explores both sides of the debate on late-term abortion due to fetal anomaly. In the first part of the article you are introduced to a woman who found out that her unborn baby had Trisomy 13, an almost always fatal chromosomal defect. She decided to carry her baby to term. The baby lived for 4.5 hours. In the second part of the article you are introduced to a woman who found out that her unborn baby had Trisomy 2, a fatal chromosomal defect. She decided to terminate her pregnancy and was forced to have her procedure done in a clinic with dingy couches and other patients who talked about getting their nails done after their procedure.
Both women were able to follow their hearts and make the decision that was best for THEIR family. No one was forced to carry to term, and no one was forced to terminate. That's what CHOICE is all about.
