Either choice is a bet. We choose to abort the pregnancy because we had first hand experience with spina bifida going very bad, and felt we protected our child from the unsufferable suffering many of them live through, but there are some amazing exceptions in this thread. We'll never know if we made the right choice, and I wish with all my heart this kind of surgery was available eight years ago, holding her corpse broke me completly. At least she is not suffering.
