This is in Ireland. Reminds me of Marlise Munoz all over again. :notgood: The title of the article is incorrect. She isn't being kept "alive" if she is brain dead. :doh:
Clinically brain-dead pregnant woman being kept alive to save the baby -- against parents' wishes
A 16-weeks pregnant woman is being kept alive on life support to save her unborn baby, despite being pronounced brain-dead by Ireland's leading neurosurgeons, reported the Irish Independent. The woman's parents, however, are demanding their daughter be allowed to die.
The story has sparked heated debate whether or not Ireland should reconsider legalizing abortion.
