All the heart warming stories will not make up for the fact that people are not meant to be born at 1 lb.

Women have been giving birth for millenia and if the child is this small, they die. If the mother dies, the child dies

What is disturbing to all you MAGA that you can't see whst a perversion has happened hear against the family's wishes though of course they will try their best with the hand thst is forced upon them now.

G-d knows you won’t eschew medical care when you suffer a medical condition or injury.

Then you will get all the medical care necessary!

Hey dcum, is it racist and disgusting to let black pregnant women and their babies die because their doctors were negligent?

Just throw the pregnant women out back when they get sick or hurt and then let “nature take its course!”

If a woman with a newborn gets in an car accident, let them both die.

In the olden days, when a cavewoman was attacked by a saber toothed tiger while carrying her newborn, they both died.

🤡

You are the clowns here

See how useless a dead body is at incubating a human. They could only get the baby to 1lb even with probably all medical intervention given. This is a perversion.

ATLANTA — The family of Adriana Smith, a metro Atlanta nurse who was declared brain dead in February while pregnant, said her baby boy has arrived.
According to her mother, April Newkirk, the infant, named Chance, was born prematurely Friday, June 13, around 4:41 a.m. by emergency Cesarean section.

Newkirk said Chance weighs about 1 pound 13 ounces and is in NICU.

[google]You keep spreading lies and misinformation about a newborn baby.
[/google]

Ooo I didn't mention the 13 oz so I must be spreading misinformation

Don't you know the number one rule of misinformation that MAGA have learned?

The lie for misinformation must be blatantly a bald faced lie for it to work. See all the GOP.

Yeah, you are a very sick individual.

You are attacking a baby as unworthy of his life because his mom didn’t receive the medical care she needed and deserved.

You are just odd

Everyone has their own quirks; you are the one with a grudge against a newborn.

Eh

You are utterly missing the point that these "life saving measures" were taken against the directives of the woman, and without the input of her family.

But … I remain disgusted at the “pro life” fetishization of the fetus. This whole saga was an intensely expensive, distressing and painful intervention that produced a micropreemie that will need yet more painful and expensive intervention, with a very high chance of a child with severe disability … and then the mother’s body is thrown away once it is no longer needed. All because the very natural course of events was not allowed to take place and the family was not given a choice. I believe the willingness of the mother is as the heart of the mortality and good of childbirth and childrearing - and this event made a complete mockery out it it. It is truly repellent. Her body was literally dead.

Yet the pro lifers will wax on ecstatically about “life” and “babies” and “wombs” with complete lack of acknowledgement about the immense pain and burden and unhappiness caused.

When you listen to these pro lifers you can hear that they literally worship the “womb” and the “baby” and refuse to acknowledge any legitimacy of the costs and pains of childbirth let alone the damages suffered by unwanted children. It’s all a fairy tale to them. It’s deeply, deeply negating towards any value of the woman’s life.

I am disgusted that dcum can’t show any love or respect for a baby born and his life. He’s a human being

Pretending that you know how “disabled” a newborn baby is, and how his life is worthless and he would be better off dead is abhorrent.

Mom was a nurse at Emory; she had health insurance. She was insured for her hospital stay and treatment.

Chance was a wanted baby.

Why don’t you ghouls stop basing your worldview of such situations off of a tv show based on a book of fiction? Are you that out of touch with the reality of life, or so politically motivated that even a newborn baby is seen a disposable?

The problem is that this woman, a RN, had the misfortune of being black, and her medical care was substandard. She should be alive and pregnant and happy.

The family should sue the medical centers that didn’t take care of her and Chance correctly and get a trust set up for Chance and his older sibling, so their needs are met. The doctors that didn’t medically help this woman are liable for her death and liable as they deprived two young children of their mom.

I don’t see anyone talking about “who is going pay for” the older sibling? That child lost their mom too. That child needs to be taken care of financially.

The mom’s body wasn’t “thrown away.” She was taken off life support by her family- who loved her.

The entire dcum narrative is that mom didn’t want her baby to be born, the family wanted the woman to be taken off life support, and the baby is severely disabled.

None of that incredibly gross narrative is true. If you look back at the thread created before Chance was born, posters were insisting Chance was “blind” and unable to walk, had epilepsy, etc. Nobody knew his medical status, but posters were invested in lying about an unborn baby.

What would motivate a stranger to lie about an unborn baby?

Why aren’t you all talking about how mom presented at least twice to ERs and was not taken seriously? The medical staff that didn’t give her proper care are the people who threw this poor woman away.

A tragedy occurs and what does dcum focus on? Lying about a baby.

Dcum is ignoring the poor/nonexistent medical care a pregnant black woman received that resulted in her death to complain that her baby was born and the grandmother says he is doing good and asks for prayers.

STFU disgusting forced birth ghoul. Even the most Catholic medical ethicists would have a huge problem with this.

She's now preparing to say goodbye to her daughter. Newkirk said the hospital will take Smith off of life support Tuesday.
"It's kind of hard, you know," she said tearfully. "It's hard to process."
She wishes she had more time“”

I feel so sorry for this poor woman. If she had been cared for correctly and received better medical care, she could be here with her children.

It’s amazing the Chance is going to be ok!

You cannot honestly believe that a one-pound baby is okay.

AMERICA'S TINIEST PREEMIE
Treatment developed at Iowa helps save extremely premature baby
https://medicineiowa.org/fall-2024/americas-tiniest-preemie

Eight-and-a-half ounces.

That’s roughly the weight of two sticks of butter, a roll of quarters, or a smartphone.

It’s also how much Evelyn Eilers weighed when she was born 17 weeks early at University of Iowa Health Care in September 2023, making her the smallest surviving infant in the U.S., and one of three tied for third-smallest in the world, according to the Tiniest Babies Registry.

Evelyn weighed 240 grams, or 8.46 ounces, at birth. When she went home at 7 months old, she weighed 7 pounds 8 ounces—the size of an average full-term newborn.




Grandma said they named the baby Chance because he has a second Chance at life. Very sweet.

Yeah, super sweet that her daughter was kept as a human incubator against her family's wishes to give birth to a NICU baby and they'll be saddled with hundreds of thousands of medical bills.

Chance lived and is healthy so far according to his grandmother.

Dcum angry Chance lived, how disgusting.

Yes, keeping a legally dead body “alive” to gestate a non-viable fetus is repulsive.

You know what is really repulsive?

A black female rn experiencing health issues and presenting to two ERs, her justified medical conditions being ignored/undertreated, her suffering brain death because of medical negligence, 2 children losing their mom, a family losing their daughter/sister/loved one, a woman losing her life, and dcum talking about how pro-life people are like handmaid’s tale and pretending they know how disabled an innocent baby who lost his mom is and how he should have died too!!

Sure - I’m sure you’re a big Black Lives Matter supporter and advocate for black mother’s maternal health.

In best case scenario where baby goes home, If you want this 24 weeker to have a chance at a good life. Will need a very expensive NICU stay likely covered by Medicaid. ( single dad will be with the baby in the NICU so not working? Until at least term so 14 weeks or more) Multiple therapies as early interventions. Likely multiple specialists involved in lifelong care (likely Medicaid) Likely will need and IEP. And early preschool at 3 and 4yo with services like speech. Extra hearing and Vision screens. After discharge if the baby eats PO expensive preterm formula paid for by WICC. Expensive new vaccines like Beyfortus to prevent an expensive hospital stay from RSV (or death) which premies are at high risk of. So saying you are pro life and wanting to protect this kid and in the same breath saying you are pro cute to Medicaid, vaccine research, IEPs, WICC, SNAP makes no sense. It is not realistic to think that a single parent can give this kid the care needed and not need these services. This much money can save lives of many many existing people struggling to pay hospital bills to get treatments to survive.

Dcum is horrified a baby lived and compares a human being to pieces of organs, and insists every mom wants her baby to die if she becomes sick or injured or ill.

Do you know this woman wanted her baby to die? Source?

Babies aren’t parts of organs.

Suddenly dcum democrats don’t want to care for born children, despite the trope that republicans don’t want children to have necessary medical care and food.

I thought republicans were the people who didn’t care about children after they were born?

The hospital that allowed this woman to go home when she should have been hospitalized and treated will settle with her family. Their malpractice insurance will provide millions for the siblings, as they should.
