[quote=Anonymous]Whoops, screwed up the quote tags...

From one of the comments on her original blog post:

[quote]I can understand a mother wanting to care for her child. Logically, though, failing to prevent pregnancy in a bipolar woman can be much worse than just giving her the Plan B. I assume she is on meds: those will have to changed, either stopped entirely or cut down. Taking the meds while pregnant has been known to cause miscarriages and birth defects, some fatal. Being off the meds, however, and being hormonal in addition to bipolar can seriously aggravate the condition, especially suicidal ideation.

It's not an easy choice. But if it were me, I would risk losing a potential baby instead of risking the lives of both my daughter and her baby."[/quote]

This is incredibly similar to the hypothetical proposed recently on one of the epic Komen/PP threads here. I think it was: What if your embryo had a disease that your teenaged child could cure by donating his/her kidney? Or something like that.

This woman is railroading her daughter's physical, mental and emotional health for the sake of a blastocyst. I will NEVER understand it. [/quote]
