[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I think the crux is that it's the family's decision.  As stated, they never got to decide. That's what the pp are suggesting is wrong.  All you crazies who suggest people taking issue with the decision to keep baby are idiots.   Nobody is saying they aren't pulling for the kid, it's the moral and legal line this case crossed when the govt decided there was no option but to keep the pregnancy going no matter what![/quote]

matter.

“We want the baby. That’s a part of my daughter.

Newkirk believes her daughter’s condition could have been prevented. She told 11Alive Smith was given high-potency Tylenol during her visit to Northside but never received a CT scan that might have detected the clots earlier.
“A simple CT scan could have saved her life,” she said. “She was a 30-year-old mother chasing her dreams. It just doesn’t make sense.”

The family said they are now focused on reaching August 11 — the projected date in which Newkirk said doctors feel baby Chance can be safely delivered. After that, Newkirk said, they will have to face another painful decision about whether to remove life support.

“That’s what I have a hard time with,” she said. “But right now, the journey is for baby Chance to survive — and whatever condition God allows him to come here in, we’re going to love him just the same.”

The mom/grandma is quoted as saying that the family had a hard time deciding whether or not to remove life support from their daughter even after Chance was delivered.

They wanted Chance to be born. He’s part of their family. Part of their daughter. She had to be kept on life support for him to be born.

Where are you getting that the family wanted her to be taken off life support? An episode of a tv show?
