[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right, every pregnancy has risks. So her pregnancy is not unusual in that regard.

Also, termination of a pregnancy has risks,  and studies have shown termination of a pregnancy can cause issues with fertility.

It’s really a tragic situation being used in a political manner. I have seen lots of people in life threatening medical situations and this currently isn’t one of them.[b] It could rapidly develop into a life threatening situation, and the mother would receive medical care in that case. [/b][/quote]

So you are admitting that you’d rather this woman and mother be actively dying before getting medical care? [/quote]

Neither the mother or baby is actively dying. If either occurs, the doctors will provide medical care and save the mother’s life.

Complications can occur in pregnancy without the mother dying. [/quote]

So the answer is yes, then? You’d rather she suffer severe complications possibly resulting in her death instead of receiving medical care now. Got it.[/quote]

I get you are incapable of having a discussion without being intellectually dishonest.

She would not be receiving medical care now because doctors don’t abort babies in hospitals unless there are urgent or emergent medical issues. Doctors don’t consider abortion medical care unless someone’s life is in danger. Mom is ok and baby is not able to be “fixed” with a surgical procedure.

She can drive to NM and have an elective abortion.

Abortions occur in clinics and not hospitals because doctors don’t want to perform abortions unless the medical necessity is great. They use their skill and training to save lives. [/quote]
Complicated abortions where the mother’s life or health is in jeopardy absolutely occur at hospitals. And doctors do want to perform them when they’re necessary to save their patients. Including this woman’s doctor who has been to court with her.[/quote]

It’s terrifying that this PP doesn’t understand that therepeutic abortions are medical care .. [/quote]

It’s terrifying you don’t understand this patient isn’t entitled to a medical abortion under Texas law at this time.

Her ob-gyn will not perform a medical abortion because the patient doesn’t meet the criteria. The patient can get an abortion in NM, wait until the baby’s heart stops, or be legit diagnosed with a life threatening medical condition and receive a medical abortion in Texas. [/quote]
I do understand that and most of the other PPs here do. What we don’t understand is why you or anyone else thinks that’s OK.[/quote]

Waiting on a response for this. [/quote]
