Summary
Avery Davis Bell faced severe complications with a miscarriage in Georgia, where restrictive abortion laws delayed her necessary medical care.
At 18 weeks pregnant, she was forced to wait for life-saving treatment due to Georgia’s abortion restrictions, which prevent immediate intervention unless a medical emergency escalates.
Bell’s experience highlights the risks imposed by post-Dobbs state laws, with maternal deaths rising faster in states with strict abortion bans.
The law’s impact on Bell’s experience highlights the inhumane consequences of abortion restrictions, which can lead to unnecessary suffering and even death.
I agree… However, I do understand the hesitance as well. Imagine spending untolds amount of money, and over a decade in school, only to end up with a 99 year prison sentence for preventing a woman with a miscarriage from dying.
Fuck this country.
“You save this lady’s life or you don’t have to find a new way to feed your kids” is not a position anyone should have to be put in.
