Abortion Bans Have Delayed Emergency Medical Care. In Georgia, Experts Say This Mother’s Death Was Preventable.​

View attachment 1013506​

In her final hours, Amber Nicole Thurman suffered from a grave infection that her suburban Atlanta hospital was well-equipped to treat.

She’d taken abortion pills and encountered a rare complication; she had not expelled all of the fetal tissue from her body. She showed up at Piedmont Henry Hospital in need of a routine procedure to clear it from her uterus, called a dilation and curettage, or D&C.

But just that summer, her state had made performing the procedure a felony, with few exceptions. Any doctor who violated the new Georgia law could be prosecuted and face up to a decade in prison.

Thurman waited in pain in a hospital bed, worried about what would happen to her 6-year-old son, as doctors monitored her infection spreading, her blood pressure sinking and her organs beginning to fail.

It took 20 hours for doctors to finally operate. By then, it was too late.

This is what Trump has done. This is a result of his supreme court. They tell us they are pro life, but we see a gravestone here that did not have to be made because of people who claim to be pro life.

Oh, bullshit. She'd already killed the baby. Removing some remaining fetal tissue that hadn't been expelled from her body wouldn't have been an abortion. She had an infection that she waited too long to address.

The politics was debunked.

Wrong again junior.

The death was preventable. That's all that needs to be said. I am not going to argue about this with a bunch of people who want to cut any help a chid needs after it's born.

She died because she used an abortion pill and had a complication from that pill. That had zero to do with Donald Trump. Why did the hospital refuse to treat an infection? Did they want a martyr? If you believe in doing the right thing as a doctor you should have done it in this case.

Again, I don't care. The death was preventable.

Yeah it was. She could have left early enough to get to North Carolina for her abortion appointment. She could have NOT taken the abortion pills! The doctors at the hospital could have operated immediately to treat the infection. That death was preventable but Georgia's abortion laws had little to do with it.

It's fairly evident you never worked in a hospital, but it also sounds like you've never been in one.

Wrong on all scores but that’s hardly surprising. It’s fairly evident that you don’t have the brains God gave a goose

Hence, my statement of Faith trumps science.

All faith is, is a belief in mythology.

They had everything to do with her death.

She died waiting for doctors worried about the law.

Fake news

The deer in the headlights phrase used when MAGA are standing on ice at night in the path of an 18 wheeler doing 70 mph loaded down with 20 tons of truth with air horn blaring.

They had everything to do with her death.

Then it's malpractice on the doctors because the law doesn't apply to something already dead.

 

[BlindBoo]

Exception being saving the life of the mother.

It should be up to the doctors to decide when the life of the mother is at risk, not the politicians, not the DA's. In this case the fetus had already been aborted so the doctors didn't have liabilty for that. This routine proceedure would have likely saved her life.

Exception being saving the life of the mother.

So, how did she die at the hospital?

 

[ice man]

Who the **** are YOU to determine who is and who is not a "Real Man''?

man up

 

[ice man]

Georgia and Tex-Ass comes to mind.

wrong

 

[ice man]

You don't give shit about that baby after it is born.

You don't care if that baby has roof over it's head, clothes on its back or get a hot meal and never mind education.

You all about the baby before it is born, after it is born, **** off kid;

You don't give a shit about babies born or unborn. You are disgraceful.

 

[ice man]

The problem for that is until the woman is in imminent danger of dying they won’t provide the care. They won’t do the surgery to preserve her ability to have children in the future.

Not only should there be exceptions for the life of the woman there should also be exceptions for the health of the woman.

The problem is baby killing. You need to take responsibility and man up.

The vast majority of abortions are done for convenience. 84% of abortions are had by unmarried women who shouldn't be having sex anyway.

Shame on those doctors then! Worry about your patients.
