Though the underyling cause of fetal hydrops varies, the specialist said Day’s baby was likely influenced by Trisomy 18 (also known as Edwards syndrome), a genetic condition that causes fetal growth delays and, eventually, life-threatening complications. Dr. Saul Snowise, medical director of the Midwest Fetal Care Center in Minneapolis, said that Trisomy 18 is what doctors consider a “life-limiting condition.” “These babies will not survive,” he said. “The vast majority die within the first few hours and days after delivery and there is a risk for mothers who carry these babies as well—these patients can get very sick and maybe develop edema and life-threatening high blood pressure.”
So here we have claim of what doctor said, let’s see the veracity-
Edwards syndrome occurs in around 1 in 5,000 live births.[3] Some studies suggest that more babies that survive to birth are female.[2] Many of those affected die before birth.[3] Survival beyond a year of life is around 5–10%
However, these estimates may be pessimistic; a retrospective Canadian study of 254 children with trisomy 18 demonstrated ten-year survival of 9.8%, and another found that 68.6% of children with surgical intervention survived infancy.
So it’s currently in flux, but it looks as though no treatment options were offered or the chick is lying out her ass.
“I kept thinking about how I wanted my doctor—someone I trust and who knows my body and who has been with me since my first pregnancy—to be able to be with me through this process if I decided to go through with an abortion, but in the state of Texas that wasn’t an option,” Day said. “Imagine how scary it is to think that you might have to find a random doctor in another state to deal with one of the most intimate choices a woman can make.”
Intimate is an odd word for intentionally killing something for convenience.
Although her own potential health challenges were a concern, Day’s more immediate worry was for her son, as well as her fiancé’s two young children from a previous relationship. From her own research, and conversations with other pregnant women, she knew that some people in similar situations choose to carry the baby to term with the expectation that it would likely die soon after. She decided she couldn’t be one of them. “I couldn’t handle that,” she said. “I have three kids at home and they’d have to watch their newborn sibling slowly succumb to horribly painful skeletal issues, which would begin in the womb. Pro-lifers would say God should decide, but that’s a lot of trauma to ask everyone to go through, including the baby.”
Why is it that women always lie about why they do things? You’re killing the baby and saying it’s to spare it trauma?
But before going to Albuquerque a few days later, Day needed to request time off from work and arrange babysitters and meals, and a kennel for the family’s four pets. (She was able to set up an appointment at the clinic in New Mexico without delay, though a subsequent flood of Texans has subsequently pushed wait times to four weeks at some clinics since Roe was overturned, forcing some women to opt for a procedure instead of abortion medication. Medication abortions are typically used to terminate pregnancies before twelve weeks, when abortion pills are considered most effective.) Between talking to doctors, researching her options, finding a suitable out-of-state clinic, working a full-time job, and attending to her family’s needs, Day said she had no time to grieve the impending loss of her baby. “It was a whirlwind from hell,” she said. “But you don’t have time to sulk because you’re dealing with the fire in front of you and it has to be put out.”
“No Time” is another lie for she clearly doesn’t give a fuck.
Her procedure was performed without complications. Afterward, as she had requested on her intake form, clinic employees gave Day a box of her baby’s ashes, a slip of paper with the baby’s footprints and a blue blanket (indicating a boy) like one would’ve received at the hospital after giving birth. “It was not the gender reveal you’re hoping for,” she recalled. “It was more like a funeral.”
After her abortion, the couple planned to race home, but Day began hemorrhaging, a rare and potentially serious complication. Feeling weak, and worried that the bleeding might intensify, the couple lingered at a gas station in Roswell for several hours; otherwise, they risked being caught in the desert without close access to medical care. Looking back, Day fears that her condition was a prelude of tragedies to come. “We were afraid to leave Roswell,” she said. “There’s a real chance that women returning to Texas who experience a medical complication could bleed out in the desert on their way home.”
The abortion was performed without complications but Day began hemorrhaging, a complication from the abortion……………….. I can’t
