We do not force people to give blood, even when that blood could save lives.We do not force people to give up their organs, even if their organ is the ONLY one in the world that matches the patient.We do not take organs from dead people without an existing approval from the dead person (before they’re dead) or their power of attorney's approval.We do not take tissues from dead people without an existing approval from the dead person (before they’re dead) or their power of attorney's approval.If a child has kidney failure, the law does not force their mother to give up her kidney even if her kidney matches.If a child needs a blood transfusion, the law does not force their father to give blood, even if his blood type matches.I don’t understand why we’re still having this “but the fetus is a human being” argument.Even if the fetus is a human being, we do not force a human being to give up their organ, their bodily fluid to sustain another human being.That’s called body autonomyThere’s certain hypocrisy with pro-life people.Say, a fetus is a human.OK. Do fetuses get health insurance?Can fetuses inherit family wealth from the father?If a mother drinks alcohol during pregnancy, does it count as assault and battery?If a mother had a miscarriage, does that count as manslaughter?Can a pregnant mother collect food stamps for two people?Do pregnant women pay for two airline tickets when they travel?If a fetus is a human, the fetus is infringing on the basic human rights of the mother.If a fetus is a human, pregnancy would be like a woman is being forced to attach herself to another human being 24/7 for nine months.She is forced to provide blood and bodily fluid transfusion for another human being for nine months.She is forced to physically carry this human being everywhere for nine months.She is forced to suffer great bodily harm (swelling of hands and feet, back pain, morning sickness… etc) because of this human being.She will then suffer great pain, and risk death to separate this human being from her.That seemed absurd, isn’t it?So… is fetus a human or not?I mean, if you all care about the unborn baby so much, when is the last time you guys championed for “free prenatal care for all pregnant women because there’s a little human in those walking incubators and they need medical care!”no? no free prenatal care for pregnant women? obviously that lumps of cells don’t need health care.So basically, you’re telling me, a fetus is a human when you need something to justify limiting women’s options; the fetus isn’t a human when you dismiss the idea of free prenatal care for under privileged pregnant women.You can’t have both ways.Update:There seems to be a bunch of pro-life people posed as pro-choice just to troll people. They’ll start the comment saying something like “I’m pro-choice, and I agree with you. But pro-life people often said… blah blah blah”.Once you started a conversation, thinking you’re talking to a sensible person, they will give you a bunch of ridiculous logic and claims. That’s when you realized you’re actually arguing with a pro-lifer.Time wasted.

Yes - the authority of a healthcare proxy is limited to medical decisions, whereas a power of attorney can extend to whatever authority is permitted in the jurisdiction.
