(10,952 posts)Who should be financially obligated for paying to keep the incubator going and taking care of the baby if it is born with serious medical problems incurred by the process? It is bad enough for the state (and hospital) to go against the wishes of the patient and her family but an insult to injury to expect them to pay the bill.

(24,446 posts)The woman was brain dead and the fetus had "abnormalities" and might not even survived long had it- by some miracle- been finally birthed. And none of them I'm sure were offering to pay the bills for keeping all of this going I bet. This sort of thing is the ultimate extension of the anti-choice mentality and it's creepy IMHO. It is clear from this that they really don't see women as anything but incubators and fetuses as sacrosanct above all else.

(16,860 posts)I guess that's not surprising considering it was growing inside a dead woman. God, that just makes my skin crawl. How could anybody think it's a good idea to keep a fetus alive inside a dead woman? I guess those people have deformed minds or something.

"Small government" couldn't possibly get more intrusive, more arrogant, more invasive than this.
FUCK all four of these people,
