[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Diabetes was NOT her only health issue. Stop with the nonsense argument that all diabetic women shouldn’t have children. This particular woman, with ALL her challenges, likely should not have tried to carry a pregnancy to term. Not every body can handle pregnancy-that is just reality. Just like ectopic pregnancies have to be ended because there is no miracle procedure to reimplant them or whatever those nimrod legislators seem to think is possible. Pregnancy was what sparked the cascade of horrible reactions inside her body which ultimately killed her. It’s a horrible thing, and it was made worse by doctors being constrained to not be able to tell her about her grim reality.[/quote]

+1. What happened to her was not informed consent. People trust doctors and they trust them to be honest. The fact they couldn’t tell her that she might die if she did not end the pregnancy probably registered in her mind as “It can’t be that bad, the doctors would have told me if it was!” Because really she had no choice whether to continue that pregnancy or not. And given her conditions and inability to access health care, she was pretty much doomed to die. All these arm chair experts on here are acting like it’s her fault- she was probably told or believed that she was not able to access any care resources, and in a place like rural Texas, that’s a reasonable assumption for an undocumented person to make.

Way too much supposition.[/quote]
