    When my Mom was in a coma, they asked me as the oldest child to make that decision. I based it on not only my wishes for myself, but per her directive.

    However if it was my own child, I would probably make the same decision. Parents make thousands of decisions on behalf of their children. This one, however horrible, would be another one of them. I would support my wife in aborting the (already dead) child, rather than further risk the life of my wife. It’s the only and best choice, however tragic.
