2. In either scenario

you may or may not be left with life. Pregnancy is no walk in the park- it can actually bring you right up to the doorstep of death at any point along the way.

Liver transplant surgery isn’t without risk of death either.

It’s pretty much my number one reason for supporting abortion as a choice. You can’t force me to the brink of death. It’s my choice whether I go through the 9 months of carrying a fetus to term.

And hey, I’ve done it twice. Neither time was a walk in the park. It isn’t just: get pre-natal care, pregnant, give birth. So very much can go wrong.
