Ms Liz McDermott:

It is not a choice. No, there is not a choice in that case because the treatment that the mother needs may or may not bring about ending the life of the baby. If she needs it, if there is some sort of rupture or a placenta praevia, or something like that of a dramatic nature, there has never been any question. It is not considered as abortion. It is life-saving treatment that a woman needs in that moment and there is no problem with that. I do not consider that as abortion.
