But that event changed her view

That event may have changed her personal attitude to a greater disposition to giving a challenged baby a chance to recover/progress.

I do not see, however, a rational process from there to abandoning the pro-choice political position in favor of one that would dictate by law that everyone else continue aggressive treatment until natural death, which is the pro-life political position.

Exactly. And that's precisely what the pro-choice political position is--an individual moral decision by the parent. And you say that, after her experience, she would no longer permit that individual moral parental decision but substitute a one-size-fits-all legal mandate.
