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.

    The problem is not the fact that fetuses are people or not, it’s Napoleon’s “some animals are more equal than others” from Animal Farm. They view the fetus as MORE important and deserving of more rights and care than the person carrying the fetus to term.

    Yes, literally. I promise you, I have met a scary amount of conservatives who think women are only good for making babies and cleaning the house.
