Another woman forced to travel for abortion or give birth to dead or certain to quickly die fetus...

Suits her right for having sex. Did I say that right, conservatives?

Baton Rouge’s CBS affiliate reports:

A Baton Rouge mother has a week to make an unthinkable decision – carry her baby to term even though she says doctors tell her it will not survive or find another state where she can have an abortion. “It’s hard knowing that I’m carrying it to bury it,” said Nancy Davis, who is 13 weeks pregnant with her second child.
Davis says her baby was diagnosed with acrania. A rare and fatal condition, where the baby’s skull fails to form in the womb.
According to health experts, babies with this condition only survive minutes to hours after birth. But because Davis’s life was not in danger and the baby’s condition does not fall under Louisiana Department of Health’s list of qualifying conditions, she was denied an abortion.

People travel for medical reasons all the time. Make the trip to FL, if that’s her decision. Then come back and bring awareness to this circumstance that I believe should be allowed for a decision being given to the mother.

Florida? LOL.

Why is she wasting time talking to the media? Get in your car or on a plane and drive to a state where you can get a life saving therapeutic termination. Please.

Lots of people cannot afford to.

Maybe she doesn't have the time or money.
Particularly with another kid she needs to take care of.
And perhaps a job she cannot get any "leave" from.

 

[goldmom]

#gofundme?
I wonder why Planned Parenthood isn’t all over this? They should be.

So she has no family or a spouse/partner to help with babysitting her child?

They're closed in those states.
Remember?

The folks you continue to elect get them fully shut down.
This is the result. YOU pushed to elect the folks that made this happen.

So, perhaps the way to CHANGE this is for YOU to change who you vote for at the polls and tell your friends to do the same.

 

[Joes Place]

Don't know, but she would not need this if there were a local PP clinic that she could get an abortion at.

PP is a NATIONAL organization receiving hundreds of millions of our tax dollars. This would be a good thing for them to do.

So you admit you don’t know all the facts but that doesn’t stop you from passing judgment about it.
What a shock.

 

[markfromj]

…drive to a state where you can get a life saving therapeutic termination.

Wait. What life to be saved by this abortion?

No. It’s “suits”.

NONE of those tax dollars can be used to provide abortions OR abortion assistance.

AGAIN, because of laws passed by folks YOU elect.

 

[Joes Place]

I know states that have shuttered PP and other abortion clinics.

Feeling some "voter's remorse" now?

 

[goldmom]

No. It’s “suits”.

Serves?

Party of life.

So NOT freedom for American women.

Sigh.

No I’m not.
She can get the pregnancy terminated SOMEWHERE in this country.
And I support her right to do so 100%.

 

[goldmom]

Wait. What life to be saved by this abortion?

Hers. She’s carrying a dead fetus. Not a good physical state for her to be in.

 

[Joes Place]

No I’m not.
She can get the pregnancy terminated SOMEWHERE in this country.

Only IF she has the RESOURCES to go SOMEWHERE in this country.

 

[goldmom]

Only IF she has the RESOURCES to go SOMEWHERE in this country.

You offered to maybe kick in a couple bucks?

 

[Joes Place]

You offered to maybe kick in a couple bucks?

Why don't we just VOTE to allow abortions in ANY county in America.
Then NO ONE NEEDS to "kick in a couple bucks" anywhere.

Easy Peasy.

Nice side step...

 

[NoleATL]

Maybe it is my reading comprehension that is poor but as I read the article the child will die during, or shortly after, birth.

 

[Joes Place]

She already has one child.

Forcing her to run her terminally ill fetus to term will not only create hardships for her, it puts her own life at risk if the pregnancy creates health issues for her, a risk which could leave her existing child w/o a mother and could be entirely mitigated with an abortion now.

But, because "her" life isn't immediately at risk, she HAS TO WAIT UNTIL it is to get care. Which is why these laws are ridiculous. Some child or children WILL lose their mom because of a problem pregnancy that had to delay Standard of Care because of religious zealots.

This is their entire point. Punishment for "sin". It's not about life, it's about control and punishment. If it were about life, they would support things that actually lower the pregnancy and abortion rates. Notice they want to ban those things as well?

 

[Huey Grey]

No I’m not.

Except you don't. You just keep voting for the assholes taking away her rights.

All unnecessary here because of a corrupt joke SCOTUS. A self created atrocity and not defendable.

 

[Bearhawk0505]

Amazing how many on here just assume people in this situation actually have the resources to just travel somewhere for a medical procedure. Out of touch with reality for many.

Not until it personally impacts them.

Ok. But is her life threatened by this condition? The statement I pushed back on was about “this life saving procedure”.

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

Please more of these types of stories every single day. Watching the weight tied around Republicans’ necks grow heavier and heavier fills me with great joy.
