Wtf? I am the very first poster on this thread that said to wait until we have all the facts. Seems like you’re a little confused on who is the adult here. |

How did they find out about this?
I've never had a miscarriage, but a friend I walked to school with did and I came over one morning and there was a tiny fetus and lots of blood in the toilet. She buried it in a shoe box in her yard. To be honest I don't know what the proper disposal method is. But this made as much sense as anything else at that age (8th grade). |
Yes people making up that she "went about her day" as if they actually know what happened or what that means. People making up that she is a monster who abused a corpse. People making up the age of the fetus (as opposed to the stated pregnancy age) when they are not doctors or the woman herself. People making up that the fetus showed signs of injury when the doctor who examined the remains testified that it did not. |

I am a NP. I don’t know much about the particulars of this case, but in 2002, my long time best friend went into preterm labor at 21+ weeks in Ohio with her very much wanted baby, whom she had tried for a very long time to conceive. She rushed to a nearby small town hospital because there was no NICU in her area. They told her that labor was already too advanced to stop it and that the baby hadn’t reached viability, so they wouldn’t be using any extraordinary measures to try to save the baby and she wouldn’t survive. However, they did deliver the baby. Her lungs weren’t developed enough, so she attempted shallow breaths for a short period and then passed.
Obviously, it’s not tue that you can’t deliver a baby at 22 weeks. Ohio’s recent very strict 6 week abortion ban was in effect when this woman’s water broke. Her baby was still alive at that time, so I’m sure the hospital refused to induce labor because that could be considered an abortion, and the mother’s life wasn’t in immediate danger just yet. The most likely cause of this woman’s legal issues is that she was denied timely medical care because of the hospital’s fear of legal liability, due to the abortion ban. This is a travesty. |
You are a parrot. |
People making up that she was traumatized and therefore couldn’t bring herself to get the fetus out of the toilet. People making up that the fetus was partially disintegrated. People making up that a Catholic hospital did absolutely nothing for her and turned her away. I mean the list goes on and on. |
Sorry OP… you don’t own this thread just because you started it. And you can’t stop the thread because you didn’t like what direction it went in. The whole case is a travesty. The men in Ohio are freaking out because women put abortion on the ballot and guess what we won and now they’re pissed. Sorry, not sorry! |
Why would the abortion ban stop them from giving medical care to a woman experiencing a miscarriage? |
And the prosecution made up that it was 22 weeks, and that she went on her day. The discussion on this thread are about the general experience of women who have had miscarriages at that stage. |
I am not OP. And I stand by my statement that we don’t have all the facts. |
Ohio hospitals are afraid of delivering a baby that is non-viable, because they might be sued by crazy MAGA prosecutors for an abortion. The hospital also might’ve believed that the baby was less than 20 weeks which would mean they would send her home to have a miscarriage. |
Then go away and let us discuss this like adults. |
Some one made up it was a Catholic hospital, that she was turned away, that they kicked her out without treatment, also said it was because she was black and poor and that's why she was treated poorly. All of this is total bs. They don't acknowledge that she went about her day and tried to flush a dead body. These are facts. Someone in her own household called 911 on her these are facts they don't awknowlege. |
It makes no sense but that’s what anti-choice men and women want to do. They don’t care about dangers to the woman’s life. |
| This woman likely miscarried on the toilet. How did anyone find out about this? This woman was probably in shock and punishing her is outrageous. Was she reported by a plumber or did she call 911? |
