Concurring opinion by
DANIEL, J.
Dissenting opinion by POPE, J., in which DENTON, J., joins.
DANIEL, Justice (concurring).
I concur in the result. This cause of action does not involve any allegation that Dr. Theimer was negligent in not having advised or performed an abortion. The cause of action is based on Dr. Theimer’s alleged negligence in failing to properly diagnose Mrs. Jacobs’ prior illness as rubella and therefore failing to advise her of the attendant risks to the unborn child. Such advice would not have violated any Texas law.
