Really, Heywood? I don't need you to tell me what google says are treatments for severe preeclampsia. The fact is that in some cases it's too late and your only option is abortion or death. My question was, in a case where abortion is necessary to save the life of the woman, do you think it's okay and/or should be allowed?
Abortion is never the only option with pre-eclampsia. The baby can simply be delivered and treated as a preemie. It will either survive or it will not.
