I'm happy it worked out for you awesomely, first and foremost. I would have probably demanded the same given that situation. But could you imagine if that problem progressed and progressed and then your child wasn't viable (which is what I'm talking about) and there was no option but to let it die over a painful amount of time inside your wife? It's just a dangerous precedent to set so black and white. I don't want babies to be murdered (yes, I will say that) but I also don't want to have the law stop what is morally right and necessary in extremely hard situations.
