I had an ectopic pregnancy that they missed I was on the phone with my mother and she knew something was wrong. She drove over and rushed me back to the hospital. My fallopian tube had ruptured. I was bleeding internally. They had to do emergency surgery . I was going into shock from blood loss.They said i was close to dying. I had reproductive problems because of my pregnancy. And developed uterine cancer. I will never be cancer free and wil always have health issue's. If this law was in place then and they had detected my pregnancy was an ectopic one,what happened to me would still have happened because the only way they could prevent my tube rupturing would be to-do an abortion.Thats wrong.

Doctors need to "man up" and just carry out procedures they know are needed. I will happily give money, such as go fund me, to support a doctor in court. The insanity needs to stop. The health of the primary patient, the mother, is paramount.

No way! Leave the state and let them fend for themselves. Throw away 20 years education, $250,000 student loans, suspension of license and 5 years in jail? You get what you vote for that’s what the say all the time.

Let's put a few of those in court and prove if the law is workable. Get 59 doctors in court and there will be a backlash. Keep trying to change the laws of states requiring the life to be in danger. Keep moving towards abortions being provided again for early pregnancy stages.
