[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We also know they were both young and possibly did not understand how insurance could help. Maybe they thought the nearly $300 out of his paycheck was too much.

I don’t know what happened there, but there are plenty of scenarios that don’t mean he was a loser.

Should they have gotten her enrolled in a healthcare plan? Of course. But that is us looking at it from the outside, judging them after the fact, not having the full story/all the details.

I know people want to find someone to blame. It’s easy to blame the person we know so little about. But, really, in the end, it was so many little things that added up to disaster based on what we know.[/quote]

Everyone is blaming the state of Texas. Texas would have paid for her medicaid. [/quote]

I think it didn’t help the situation to be in TX[/quote]

She was having pregnancy complications and had no health insurance. What would have been different in another state?[/quote]

It always better to have all of the information regarding your health. 
Women are not entitled to that in Texas.[/quote]

This woman didn’t want an abortion. She didn’t need an abortion. She needed health insurance and medication and treatment.

Not one article I have read about this situation said she wanted an abortion or an abortion would have saved her life as her condition was treatable with medication and bed rest. [/quote]

In fact an abortion especially early on absolutely would have saved her life. What a ridiculous thing to assert. You are no doctor, that's for sure.

But yes of course she needed health insurance AND paid sick leave AND affordable medication and treatment. It's too bad Texas refused to accept the expansion of Medicaid last year. And it's too bad so many ob/gyns are leaving Texas because they don't want to work in the awful environment Texas laws have generated. Can't blame them, but it's terrible for Texas women especially in rural areas.[/quote]
