Advances in fertility...

Good issue today from 4th period, regarding the Romanian woman, who gave birth to twins last week(one died) becoming the oldest known woman to have birthed a child.

There are some interesting contrasts and parallels with our abortion debates. This is a little more nuanced ethically. But again, you have a value conflict: Rights of the mother to conceive vs. the welfare of the baby born into the situation. What are the issues?? Also, is there extra dimension with the twin who did not survive?

Thoughts?
