Delve into this book today!..... : Studies show that a woman who has had one child with a neural tube defect such as anencephaly has about a 3% risk of having another child with a neural tube defect, as opposed to the background rate of 0. 1% occurrence in the population at large ... To date, there are only three recorded cases of anencephalic children surviving for longer periods of time: Stephanie Keene of Falls Church, Virginia, who lived for 2 years 174 days; Vitoria de Cristo, born in Portugal in January 2010 and surviving until July 17, 2012; and Nicholas Coke of Pueblo, Colorado, who as of July 2012, is still living at 3 and a half years old. ...And since, if all anencephalic infants were to have their organs donated to other infants at birth, there would be no obviously societally detrimental effects while instead improving/saving the lives of that many more infants, we have the moral imperative to do so. ...The cons are that several laws prevent removing organs from a living being or make organ donation from anencephalics impossible, some organs from anencephalic children cannot be transported due to abnormalities and the fear that there is not a significant amount of anencephalic donors to reach the demand for certain organs, such as kidneys. There is absolutely nothing that isn't thoroughly covered in the book. It is straightforward, and does an excellent job of explaining all about Anencephaly in key topics and material. There is no reason to invest in any other materials to learn about Anencephaly. You'll understand it all.
