I don't think I could just have a child because of that. I believe I would have to go on faith and take life as it came. Obviously, it is easier said then done, and I hope never to find my children severely ill or in need of care.
It's very hard to answer this one, because if your child was dying, I'm guessing most people would do anything to save them.
If the child produced is well loved, it doesn't seem as bad as producing a child you can't stand just to save a life of maybe an adult relative or spouse.
I hope we would never have to stand in this position.
