OK, if you are pro-choice on the matter of abortion please post your arguments.
(Could anti-abortionists please refrain from posting. There have been plenty on the issue of abortion, I have created this simply to hear the pro-choice case.)

Terminal Diseases.

My wife had a sister who had Cystic Fibrosis. She lived 2 weeks all of it under machinery and heavily drugged.

The docs said they had never seen such a case. Her internal organs looked liked she lived with the disease for several years.

My mother-in-law once said she didn't think she ever recognized her. They drugged her right after she was born.

All these years later they are still plagued with the incident.

My father-in-law was once a hard core Catholic. He left the Church the same day the Priest told him God was punishing him.

Severe Retardation. My wife's grandmother did her last days at a hospice. The next room over was an old woman with a severe downs daughter. They couldn't place her so she was living with her mother as she was dying. Never found out what happened but the woman could not care for herself and this was a time when they were closing down "special" facilities as people felt they were overtaxed.....
