Case Study: Fetal Abnormality
Jessica is a 30-year-old immigrant from Mexico City. She and
her husband Marco have been in the U.S. for the last 3years and have finally
earned enough money to move out of their Aunt Maria’s home and into an
apartment of their own. They are both hard workers. Jessica works 50 hours a
week at a local restaurant, and Marco has been contracting side jobs in
construction. Six months before their move to an apartment, Jessica finds out
she is pregnant.
Four months later, Jessica and Marco arrive at the county
hospital, a large, public, nonteaching hospital. A preliminary ultrasound
indicates a possible abnormality with the fetus. Further scans are conducted
and it is determined that the fetus has a rare condition in which it has not
developed any arms, and will not likely develop them. There is also a 25%
chance that the fetus may have Down syndrome.
Dr. Wilson, the primary attending physician is seeing
Jessica for the first time, since she and Marcodid not receive earlier prenatal
care over concerns about finances. Marco insists that Dr. Wilson refrain from
telling Jessica the scan results, assuring him that he will tell his wife
himself whenshe is emotionally ready for the news. While Marco and Dr. Wilson
are talking in another room, Aunt Maria walks into the room with a distressed
look on her face. She can tell that something is wrong and inquires of Dr.
Wilson. After hearing of the diagnosis, she walks out of the room wailing
loudly and praying out loud.
Marco and Dr. Wilson continue their discussion, and Dr.
Wilson insists that he has an obligation to Jessica as his patient and that she
has a right to know the diagnosis of the fetus. He furthermore is intent on
discussing all relevant factors and options regarding the next step, including
abortion. Marco insists ontaking some time to think of how to break the news to
Jessica, but Dr. Wilson, frustrated with the direction of the conversation,
informs the husband that such a choice is not his to make. Dr. Wilson proceeds
back across the hall, where he walks in on Aunt Maria awkwardly praying with
Jessica and phoning the priest. At that point, Dr. Wilson gently but briefly
informsJessica of the diagnosis, and lays out the option for abortion as a
responsible medical alternative, given the quality of life such a child would
have. Jessica looks at him and struggles to hold back her tears.
Jessica is torn between her hopes of a better socioeconomic
position and increased independence, along with her conviction that all life is
sacred. Marco will support Jessica in whatever decision she makes, but is
finding it difficult to not view the pregnancy and the prospects of a disabled
child as a burden and a barrier to their economic security and plans. Dr.
Wilson lays out all of the options but clearly makes his view known that
abortion is “scientifically” and medically a wise choice in this situation.
Aunt Maria pleads with Jessica to follow through with the pregnancy and allow
what “God intends” to take place, and urges Jessica to think of her
responsibility as a mother.
