Of course, it is increasingly difficult to find an abortion provider in many
parts of the country. So it may not have been possible for them to do so.
Also, I don't know what Alaska law is regarding parental notification and

Not exactly responsive, but what are the chances that she may be
carrying the same chromosomal mutation that her mother or father
carried for their latest? Not sure how Down's Syndrome works. My
daughter was born with a chromosomal defect that results in a common
syndrome, the most common in fact, behind Downs. We adopted her, so I
don't really know enough about it.

Just wondering and thought I'd drift the thread. It's my job, you
know. ;)
