She Was Told Her Twin Sons Wouldn't Survive. Texas Law Made Her Give Birth Anyway

[MarathonMike]

There is a sob story like this in every issue of People's Magazine. Thank goodness for the magazine being in every waiting room to America.

Explain the difference between yanking a baby from the womb at 8 months and stabbing it in the neck and beheading a baby born at 8 months gestation. I'm waiting.......

Well, it IS Daily Kooks... I mean Kos

Oh so completely fake.

If she used a doctor that “sawed” through her she might want to consider a new doctor.

Or maybe use of that word should of been the first sign this was nothing more then propaganda

Sawed through her SCAR TISSUE from 3 previous c section surgeries.

 

[Care4all]

Typical outlier sob story to justify late term baby murder.

She had to go 4 more months, through entire pregnancy and through another dangerous c section.

When she could have had a safer abortion 4 months earlier when told her twins had problems and would not survive after birthed.

Yes…repeating it doesn’t make it less ridiculous.

Doctors don’t saw through tissue

Miranda Michel’s eyes popped open on the operating table, panic gripping her body. Was she too late?

Doctors had said her twins might only survive two or three minutes. She didn’t know if they’d already been born, how much time had passed, if she had missed it entirely, if they were already gone.

During the two-hour surgery, as doctors sawed through scar tissue from three previous C-sections, Miranda tried to fight the sedation, waking in alarm, then slipping back to sleep after her partner and mother-in-law assured her the babies were still safe inside her.

Miranda’s prognosis was as clear today as when she first heard it, four months ago: a zero percent chance of viability, for either twin. But Texas’ new abortion laws, which make no exception for lethal fetal anomalies, required Miranda to carry this pregnancy through to the bitter end.

Such fine people.

It's the Daily Kos, so I knew something like this would show up:

To be sure, she’d have to go to a specialist three hours away in Allen. By the time she got the appointment, Levi found time off work, they coordinated travel with Angela and figured out child care, it was May and Miranda was four months pregnant.

Miranda Michel, 26, couldn’t leave the state for an abortion. But she also couldn’t bear the idea of carrying a nonviable pregnancy to term.

To the humorless, partisan member struth and the four idiots who "thanked" him(?) for posting that insulting BS:

1. Seek mental help.
   
2. Stop hating women.

I used to visit the Dailykos 20 years ago. They banned me from their msg board because I said blacks can be racist too.

They're nothing but a bunch of commie leftists tossers.

You can bet your paycheck that every story they publish is total rubbish and that the people in the story do not even exist.

Cry me a river. Like you, they are largely partisan hacks. But all they apparently did here was repost some excellent journalism from the Texas Tribune.

And?

This time, there was no weekslong wait for a follow-up appointment. Within a few hours, Miranda was sitting across from a maternal-fetal medicine specialist in Dallas as he pulled out a whiteboard and illustrated all the ways this pregnancy was headed for disaster.

The babies’ spines were twisted, curling in so sharply it looked, at some angles, as if they disappeared entirely. Organs were hanging out of their bodies, or hadn’t developed yet at all. One of the babies had a clubbed foot; the other, a big bubble of fluid at the top of his neck.


It was, in many ways, a simple diagnosis: As soon as these babies were born, they would die.

Emotional, anecdotal argument with no proof it isnt made up….dismissed.

 

[j-mac]

That conservatives defend level of state-sanctioned cruelty is further proof that Republicans are unfit to govern.

No “cruelty“ happened, because it’s a fake story. And you fall for it every time.

hahahah i'm not the one that supports women going to doctors that need to "saw" them for C-Sections....that seems to be the message you are and your propaganda rage are pushing...sick stuff

 

[Resnic]

Typical outlier sob story to justify late term baby murder.

And how many healthy babies were saved due to stopping abortion?

People seem to love to bring up incest, rape and detective babies when trying to get abortion made legal. But they never mention how many of those types of babies are aborted vs how many babies are aborted due to them just not being wanted.

 

[mudwhistle]

Sawed through her SCAR TISSUE from 3 previous c section surgeries.

Does this cause cancer?
Or does this cause her tits to fall off?

 

[Care4all]

No. But it cut in to her and her Partner's chance of being able to birth another healthy child....

What the over powering govt did to her and partner is unconscionable.

So you just ignore the reality and call it a name so it'll go away?
