Nothing in this article shall be construed to prohibit a
person from obtaining an abortion in the case of rape, incest,
or where the mother's medical condition is one which, on the
basis of the physician's good faith judgment, so complicates the
pregnancy as to necessitate an immediate abortion to avert the
risk of her death or for which a delay will create serious risk
of substantial and irreversible impairment of major bodily
function." /
