I would discern, along with my wife, the call of continence until at least she would be past her child-bearing years. I would also, with her, consider a strict adherence to Natural Family Planning and engaging in intercourse solely during the few days of almost complete infertility. I would also get multiple opinions from other doctors about the real risks she would face in a pregnancy.

But no, neither I or my wife would ever consider sterilization or contraception.
