The 21 Percent Choice: Navigating Trisomy's Ethical Labyrinth
Prenatal screening for Trisomy 21 is a technological advance that also presents parents with an extremely difficult ethical decision: should the pregnancy be terminated? Nine out of ten couples opt for termination. But some choose to keep their child, even if it means reorganizing their lives entirely to cope with the intense medical follow-up required to provide the best possible care for their child. Other families only realize at the moment of birth that their baby has Down's Syndrome, which could not have been detected beforehand. An exhaustive investigation with deeply moving testimonials.
