⚖️ Massachusetts' response to the Lindsay Clancy trial

🤰🏼 Texas denying abortion care to a severely pre-eclamptic patient, leading to her death

📲 The influence of social media on peoples' birth control choices

and more.

I once had a professor in a human sexuality class dismiss my fears that banning abortion would kill women and lead to them being arrested for miscarriage.

And look where we are now.

I hope Texas loses the lawsuit for obstruction of proper care for pregnant women.

The medical procedure that saved my mom when she miscarried my big sister is now considered an illegal abortion in the state she had it in.

My daughter recently had a baby in TX and had postpartum preeclampsia. I am so thankful she survived with proper treatment and that this did not happen during the pregnancy, because she could well have died under the current regime.

My mum worked in a private Catholic hospital in Ireland. It was bought by an American catholic company. When her friend at work had to travel to abroad to get health care for her tiny sick baby (heart condition diagnosed by ultrasound and associated complications) my mum assumed that the hospital group would donate something in the spirit of Christian charity. But they didn't because they don't care once the baby is born

This has happened several times in various US locations. Roe v. Wade should never have been overturned. 😢

Twenty years ago, I was pregnant in Massachusetts and on Medicaid. It was standard then for Medicaid plans to cover visiting nurses to check on baby and myself. It was such an enormous help, and was how my postpartum OCD was caught!

It's so sad that people are literally dying, going into debt, and not getting help in the country who spends the most on hearhcare

@StormEyes1991 8 days ago

I find it absolutely wild that the US doesn't have post-partum home visits by a medical professional.

We've had that since at least the 1950's here in the UK.

Can't remember if I commented this before, but how people can call themselves pro life and be okay with this happening is actually sickening to me

"We can't have those statistics come out ahead of midterm elections." I hate it here. (In the US, not in MDJ's channel.)

I live in Michigan but work in Ohio.
In March I started hemorrhaging at work. I was miscarrying my very wanted and loved baby.

I was bleeding out I had to make the choice between going to a hospital in Ohio or drive myself to Michigan. I was afraid I wouldn’t get adequate care in Ohio so I drove 1 hours to get to a hospital in Michigan.

Midway the hemorrhaging got worse and I just kept praying and asking for god to just let me make it to the hospital. I just focused on getting to the hospital.

I was treated in Michigan and transferred to higher level care facility for blood transfusion.

I survived. And perhaps it’s only because I made the decision to get care in Michigan vs Ohio. I’m so so sorry for the women who didn’t have that choice. Whose lives were lost, senselessly.

We collectively need to fight these injustices and demand change.
Vote. Vote. VOTE.

I can just imagine the health care professionals in that Texas hospital that actually care about women being forever haunted by the deaths of these patients because they don't want to go to jail and/or get their license taken away.

$250,000 for a peripartum psychiatrist is one psychiatrist. For the entire state of MA.

I live in Massachusetts about 5 miles from where Lindsey Clancy lived. I am so thankful our state is funding this, it will make a difference. I feel so lucky to live in Massachusetts.

I'd love to see you in a collab with LegalEagle one day on this topic or similar, they are a law channel and also covered the Clancy case!

I just watched a video of a woman telling pro life protesters that her great niece found out she was pregnant, so excited, only to find out the baby was developing without a skull and they refused her an abortion. She had to do a vaginal delivery and then hold the baby in her arms while it suffocated to death. Fucking disgusting. Fucking heartbreaking. And the guy said “and you think that’s worse than being ripped out of the womb?” yes. Abortion is health care.

I am a Texan 35 years old and I am terrified to have another baby, despite wanting to.

@Chloholio 7 days ago

It’s so backwards how pro life activists support killing the mother if the baby dies. Even if the mother has other children and leave their babies to be raised without a mother.
