1/ If you care about the women in your life, abortion bans should alarm you. Tennessee already has a ban in place and there are people there who want to make sure that a woman is actively dying before they can have an abortion #NEleg propublica.org/article/tennes…
2/ Will Brewer with Right to Life said: pregnancy complications “work themselves out,” When faced with a patient’s high-risk condition, doctors should be required to “pause and wait this out and see how it goes.”
3/ Guess what: Will has no medical background. Doctors do not wait until an appendix bursts to remove it, they don’t wait for a tumor to metastasize before deciding to treat with chemotherapy. Prevention is the best medicine.
