Before you go anywhere you would have to research hospitals. What if Johns Hopkins Hospital was a catholic hospital? (I swear it seems they are taking over every hospital in Baltimore city.) there would be no non-catholic churches.

I remember my cousin's last pregnancy was high risk. The doctors were afraid they would have to be a choice between my cousin's life and the baby's. Having to make a horrible choice like that was hell for my cousin. But she had two other kids she had to think about. and she had to tell the doctors if anything should happen, try to save her. What if she was at this hospital where they just made the decision for her? she would be dead. and where would my two little cousins have gone? Thankfully, the baby survived and the choice between lives didnt have to be made.

Wow that's weird, I always assumed it's a given you save the mother's life. Why would it ever logically be the other way around unless you specify or a religious church?

I always thought the same thing. The doctor's wanted to keep the baby in as long as possible. My cousin eventually had to be admitted in to the hospital at 5 months. she had so many issues I cant even begin to list them. but the doctors told her, one or both might die and she would had to let them know what she wanted. a month later she delivered the baby knowing it may had died, but if she waited any longer, she would had most likely had died. At least they gave her the choice. this was ten years ago and I cant recall if the hospital was religious affiliate or not.
