Summary

Eighteen-year-old Nevaeh Crain died from sepsis after Texas’s abortion ban delayed critical medical intervention during her pregnancy complications.

Despite multiple ER visits and severe symptoms, doctors waited to confirm fetal demise before acting due to the state’s restrictive laws. Crain endured intense pain and deteriorating health over multiple hospital visits, ultimately suffering a miscarriage and passing away from internal bleeding.

Medical experts believe timely intervention could have saved her. Her mother, Candace Fails, is pursuing legal accountability but faces significant legal hurdles under Texas’s stringent emergency care standards.

            Well, who knows what they choose, but the parents could have left Texas at any time.

            Obviously not in a state that has these issues.

                None. Solid blue. My state doesn’t have these sorts of medieval issues. That is unless trump gets elected and then who the fuck knows at that point.

                  Wow must be nice living in a Utopia, luckily you’ll never fall into any Kafkaesque bureaucratic nightmare.

                  Eh, no sympathy from me, you have it coming.

      Did they, though? Do we know how Nevaeh Crain and Candace Fails voted? Would that somehow make it okay?

      The fact thay people who have done nothing to support these policies can still be killed by them is PRECISELY the problem.

        They shouldn’t get pregnant in Texas because the laws in Texas could kill them. Wear a condom if you fuck in Texas.

        (I realize that in some situations, like rape, it’s not up to the woman and in those cases my snarky comments do not apply)
