Woman kept alive in hopes of saving baby

This was forwarded to me by a friend who knows this couple. I agree with the husband's decision to keep Susan alive in hopes of delivering their baby.

[First paragraph:]

"ARLINGTON, Va. — A 26-year-old pregnant woman with cancer whose brain function ceased last month is being kept alive with a respirator in hopes she can have a very premature baby who has a chance to survive."
