Does not surprise me, we live in a world that still doesn't even have enough medical research on women. Then got the audacity to tell women what to do with their bodies.
I think the medical workers know this, but the problem is that the rules are made by politicians without consulting with medical workers or experts. It's all for their own political gain
@@zitronentee- Experts? We don't need no stinking experts... We're about to be in a full-on dystopia because the SCOTUS further weakened federal agencies' ability to regulate. Republicans have been pushing this for decades, so they and their big donors can make more money (corporations can pollute more, lower their operating costs, increase profits, and increase dividends to investors). There's also a faction that has wanted to weaken the Department of Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, to allow more discrimination in law enforcement, in the workplace, and in general.
Even many regular people have foolishly wanted this. Leave decisions on acceptable levels of toxic substances in our food, water, air, personal hygiene products, furniture, building materials, toys, etc. to Congress - known for making timely, well-informed decisions in the best interests of the people and the nation. Why should we let people who have worked in the specific, relevant field for years, after having earned a relevant education for years, make such decisions?
And now they've gotten what they want (or at least what they think they want). The rich senators may think that they can fleece the U.S. while letting it become uninhabitable. But Climate Change (which they also deny to serve their own short term interests) continues to make more and more opportunities the Earth problematic (including tropical islands). And the politicians in the House who aren't rich, and regular people, will be stuck here for the most part.
The most invested into animal in perhaps in the universe. Should probably pull your horns in with that ignorance.

@@thepope9023 the human placenta is the most invasive of all mammalian placentas…it rips and tears into the uterus and even through it, paralyzing blood vessels and holding them open as it pumps hormones that can permanently alter and permanently damage the body of the person who is pregnant
Who do you want making your healthcare and reproductive decisions? Yourself? That's what we all want, right?
by the time a woman realizes she is pregnant she has already reproduced - i.e. the time for making "reproductive decisions" has obviously passed... and, obviously, taking the life of a child, born or unborn, to make your life easier is not a healthcare decision - it's a selfish decision that needs to be illegal.
Holy sacrifices. That is how women who go through this are viewed by the pro-life movement. Either sacrifices, or liars.
I hope she’s suing.
The stupidity of politicians has real consequences for women
It's not stupidity, it's audacity.
It’s not just stupidity, it’s predatory behavior
Poor women… I feel awful for her.
Then get out and vote Blue up and down the ticket.
man/woman= singular
men/women= plural
@@kalipw0210Thank you, I've been wondering how anyone can make this particular error. I could not figure out a polite way to correct this spelling problem.
@@dianeviviana9830 It's usually males that do this, so this one having a feminine name struck me as odd. It's kind of funny how we pronounce women. We say it like the e and o are switched. Like wemon. I think that's where the confusion is lol
man/woman= singular
men/women= plural
women= wemon

Sepsis is awful just terrible. I have lost a family member to sepsis and would not wish it on anyone.
Agreed. Even those who are lucky enough to survive sepsis can have their health irreversibly weakened for the rest of their lives. I'm so sorry for your loss.
The people in charge will say it's "God's plan" 🙄 what a joke
Stories like these will just cause more women to opt out of motherhood
Or vote Democrat!
Even mothers will opt out of future motherhood.
@@mikeross4both
They should. It's very dangerous and risky, and financially costly
No kidding. Wouldn't you opt out.
This is what "only to save the life of the mother" means. You're gonna go septic. But you're not septic _YET._ We'll help you as soon as that happens.
Its why we should push for the exception to be the health of the mother, not just her life.
I have a son. Then got my tubes removed after Roe fell. I was never going to put my son in a situation where he could become motherless due to these laws. Not worth the risk anymore since we’re forced to live with medieval laws.
Vote blue up and down the ticket!!!
💙
Never voting blue.
@@ngs5554clown 🤡
Nope. Yall shouldn't have promoted that tr4ns kids bull. I'll protect kids before grown women. I know how to use BC and other grown women ate going to have to learn
😂😂😂😂😂😂. You must love corruption.
It will only get worse if we do nothing to stop it. V. Stand up to Christo-Fascism. Vote blue. 💙💙💙
I'll tell any woman who needs a ride to Illinois for a procedure, im here for you.
@@Mach11976
Post your phone number.
The GOP would blame the dems for this.
and they should, they created a culture of "loose" women who make bad decisions and don't wont to accept responsibility for their actions.
@@rodmandrake2101you realize even married women who want children have complications that require these procedures.
It sucks, yes, but it comes at the cost of a mother/someone’s wife. Especially if they have other children who might not have a mother if she dies from complications or she’s too scared of being accused.
Roe your vote people while you still can!!
Yep every woman has a right to protect their health
This is a great channel. Straightforward, no nonsense. Appreciate it.
Better get smart quick or the damage to women will get even worse
Much _much_ worse
Too late .
Outrageous ROE MUST BE REINSTATED 💙💙💙💙
Something similar happened to me only I had an eptoptic pregnancy in 2017 some random guy off the street that claimed to be drunk yanked me into a car put his condom on incorrectly and it shot off inside me and I got pregnant in the wrong spot I don't even know why they call that a pregnancy because you can't make a baby in the wrong spot and there are no surgeries to rescue the baby thankfully I was in a blue state when it happened and they cleaned me out. It also wrecked my fertility because I only have like a 2 percent chance left of having kids. There so concerned about banning stuff like IVF and plan b instead of punishing the people that actually use abortions as a form of birth control.
I am sorry you were assaulted
The egg is fertilized before it implants in the uterus. In some cases, the fertilized egg implants in the fallopian tube instead of the uterus. (It is supposed to travel though the tube to get to the uterus.) Once a fertilized egg is implanted, it can’t be replanted elsewhere. So yes, it’s impossible for a fertilized egg to become a baby if it’s in the fallopian tube because it’s too small and can burst from being stretched. The baby is made the same way though.
Also, I’m really sorry you were violated and experienced what you did. Best wishes to you.
"pregnant in the wrong spot": Ectopic pregnancy?
"There so concerned about banning stuff like IVF and plan b instead of punishing the people that actually use abortions as a form of birth control."
You're one of those people who care only when it hurts them. People who use abortions as a form of birth control normally do so because their primary birth control method didn't work and now they're stuck with an unwanted pregnancy. Regardless, do you really want someone to be a parent who not only doesn't want to be a parent but isn't even responsible enough to use other forms of birth control regularly?
My daughter had an ectopic pregnancy, she was so happy and excited to be having a child but with complications she needed a full hysterectomy to save her life. She was devastated by the loss. I'm very sorry for your situation and for everyone else dealing with these issues.
GILEAD IS UPON US!!!!VOTE BLUE!!!
Wonder if you could post articles about these stories in the description.
Thank you for being brave enough to make post like this and remind people of what the truth is. Unfortunately, I have no doubt that the Christian nationalist will use the imperial presidency to come after all the people like you. The lights like you are going out. God help all of us!
We have to pull together women need healthcare in situations like this vote blue 💙
Another victim of trump
I just wonder how did Breanna vote?
It doesn’t matter. This is wrong. Even if a woman voted against their policies, it still affects them!!
@Chels-fz5uq Actually it does matter, ever heard of Leapards ate my face? You can't vote for the face eating Leopard then complain that it ate your face
No it doesn't matter at the moment. No matter what she voted right now she deserves our sympathy cause we aren't like the other side
@@FreshtexBlackman Truth right there.
Did she vote republican? If she did, she did it to herself and a lot of other women.
💔
First, let me preface this by saying that I am pro-choice. Not to deflect but to clarify that I am asking out of genuine curiosity instead of baiting viewers. I am curious as to how a delay would be responsible for this result. Wasn’t the infection caused by leftover fetal tissue? Wouldn’t the doctor performing the procedure be responsible instead? Or, if this a known risk, it just be an unfortunate mishap? I’m just trying to see how the one caused the other. I am appalled that she had to go out of state for a procedure, but I don’t like logical fallacies either. Other than her understandable resentment and subsequent finger pointing at what the patient thinks caused her condition, are there other, more clinical, explanations as to how the delay caused this outcome?
I mean the thing we keep hearing from these stories is that the doctors in these states with restrictions are placed in a really difficult situation, having to choose between legal and best medical practice. I think the narrative part comes in with showing the impact on women who actually wanted to get pregnant, when in reality this impacts all women from all different walks of life
the delay in care meant that there was more fetal tissue to remove and made it more difficult to remove, combined with the travel of at minimum a 3-hour flight or a 20-hour drive both increased the risk of infection. there is also the factor of high stress levels having a negative effect on the immune system. if she had been able to receive care in her home state in a timely manner then she would have had a significantly lower risk of infection due to less fetal tissue, not having to use that doctor, and not going through either a plane or car trip recently post surgery it also would have reduced her stress levels allowing for a stronger immune response
The video seems to be more concerned about blaming Tennessee for not initiating the termination process rather than honestly putting the blame where it belongs which is on the incompetence of the out-of-state provider.
F the pro life movement.
You meant F the pro death movement
@@mathildeyoung1823 So-called "pro-lifers" are significantly more pro-death than pro-choicers.
Feel that Christian love
Actually, according to a doctor’s presentation I watched last week, having only 1 Fallopian tube does Not reduce your chance of pregnancy.
Vote Blue up and down the ballot!!!
Okay, shes blaming TN. and I can understand her frustration, but it sounds like the doctor in Chicago did not make sure all fetal tissue was removed, but no anger toward that result?
If she didn’t have to be forced into slavery she wouldn’t have tried to escape to get her chains and collar removed.
Agreed like its sad she had to go to another state but why did tht other states doctor ruin her...maybe it was a non trusted or accredited physician
Maybe this is a good reason that legislators dont belong in the exam room. It gets in the way of doctors fixing the mistakes of other doctors.
I am glad to see that I am not the only one who feels that her out-of-state provider is primarily to blame for her post-treatment complications. There was no closer state she could have gone to for treatment? Sad story.
@@phalynwilliams4119 how about none of this should be needed in the first place?
So.. seems like the doctor in Chicago is too blame
Men 😵💫
How did she vote?
So, your complaining about NOT having a baby when you DON'T want it, now you're complaining about NOT being able to have a baby when you DO want it. 🤦♂️
Maybe you should do a video on the millions of healthy babies thrown away, their in this complex issue as well
💙💙💙
She couldn't drive to the neighboring state? It's too easy to travel. No sympathy from me.
The states nearest Tennessee in which the care she needed is legal are Illinois and Virginia. Depending upon which part of Tennessee she lived in, Illinois (where she went) might be closer. But it's still a long drive. Also, given that providers are overbooked and overburdened, a patient might not be able to get a timely appointment in the city closest to them. I hope that helps you understand.
How about just keep your legs closed could help! Just saying things you don’t want to hear!!! 👂 😊
Keep your legs closed and you beat the Hypergamy game!!!
Did you listen to the video. The woman is MARRIED.
Things will only change when it affects yt. Y'all wanted trump, this is what you got!
You can get pregnant just fine with 1 fallopian tube and 1 ovary. I was born that way and also half a uterus.
Near the end of the video it stated that she'd already been having fertility issues, so losing a fallopian tube just cut her meager chances in half.
What was taken from her? She can still produce cells, right? And fetal cells are no different, emotionally or legally, than any other kind of cell, so nothing is lost.
This country is doomed
She got what she voted for.
How do you know and your comment is just as bad as the gopd thoughts and prayers
So you know how “pro choice” people always says who’s gonna adopt a kids that weren’t taken out by the abort clinic well easy women who struggle to have kids of there own yeah it’s sad when woman can’t get pregnant because of health problems but they can at least fill void with of having kids by adopting them
Adoption is a possible solution for not wanting to parent, but it isn’t a solution for not wanting to be pregnant
which doesn't happen to be the *pro choice* crowd, funnily enough- the forced birthers are the first to vote down ANY support for single families and children in poverty. Weird- you'd almost think it had nothing to do with the *children* and everything to do with simply wanting to control *women*... 🤔
That other guy.... you have to know that you're spouting the most ridiculous and ignorant bs. Do you genuinely believe a grape victim that gets their body wrecked by the attack and a resulting pregnancy is going to be pining away to take the next available grape baby? Are you off your meds again? We dont owe abandoned sperm squatters rights.
Except adoption is a long, arduous process and costs alot of money. Not everyone can do that
Adoption is an alternative to parenting, not to pregnancy. There are 155,000 kids in foster care awaiting adoption, what are "pro life" people doing about that?
Poor argument. She would not have the complications if she didn’t have the procedure.
Are you a certified medical doctor In the Medical field of Ob-Gyn ?
You're not a doctor and nobody's going to listen to you so shut up and move on.
@@loriparks8657 neither is the women telling the story
Do you think nine months would improve her condition
Per the video, the child was malformed and its chance of survival was limited. The mother optioned to reduce her suffering by terminating the pregnancy and wound up with additional complications anyway. Sad story.
This is her medical problem. Always blaming the Republicans. This has nothing to do about the problems with this country. Her medical problem is her business.
Exactly her business and she should have been able to make the decision with the help of her doctor but Repugnants have taken that power away from the person and the experts.
When should abortions be allowed?
Hey life sucks and there are no absolutions in this life period!!!
I'm sure it's easy for you to say that when you're not the one being affected by those laws.
I can't watch anymore of these, they make me livid.
All I can ask is, who did she and her family vote for?
More republican votes? More women in pain and misery.
But that's apparently too complicate for humans to understand.
Bot account. Just created 10 months ago. Not a real person
