I lady had a c-section with her son. She wasn't planning another pregnancy soon after that but it happened to her. She was sixteen weeks pregnant when her scar began to rupture and the consultant said her life was in danger. Sadly she had to have an abortion in order to save her life.
Do you know that a lady doesn't always choose an abortion?
Do you think abortion should only be allowed in special circumstances like that?

I am not as against abortion as you are, my friend, and I think there are reasons to have it done. One of them is the one you just mentioned. It was not only the lady´s life, but there is a born baby that needs a mother. Of course, noone wants to have to take that decision, but sometimes, hard as it is, it´s the best one.
Take care.

Although I have strong feelings on abortion, there are circumstances where it's ok, and this would be one of those.

on circumstances like this of course if they can save two lives then it is much better. it will be very hurting for the mother if she will only be saved but not her baby. but of course there are still a lot of time to make another one. i have a friend who got a lot of miscarriages. and it affects her physically. but after a lot of try now they have a three year old cute son. i have four kids and luckily we are all safe during those months of pregnancy and the time when i was about to give birth. pregnancy is a very delicate thing.

Well , in case of such life-threatening situations ; I think there should not be any second thoughts about an abortion ; if that is the final option .
Regards
