Since when....
While reading this story: Abortion save my life
I started to see how people are now starting to devalue women's reproductive rights, I'm sorry to say, but I'm a woman so it made me think. If I'm pregnant and this kind of problem happens, my fiance or husband-to-be would have to be left alone to raise the child, which would be a horrible situation. Then having to deal with doctors who were down right apathetic when he goes in to tell them to save my life.
"Why save it? The baby needs to live first, then the mother," would likely be a response. He would become infuriated with the system.
Seeing someone who went through hell, then having a team of good people come in and do the abortion regardless of how they felt personally and also honoring the oath to save lives. That's the important part, not going in and telling the mother, "Well...you're bleeding and the baby is dying, but I'm not going to perform the abortion because its against the will of God."
That isn't fair in the least, if the mother wants the child, but for some reason her life is in jeopardy, isn't there some kind of protection, or are we all screwed from the beginning?
Its "Damned if you do, and Damned if you don't." It isn't fair, that's all I have to say on the matter, even if someone who is religious comes up and starts to debate about this. Read the article and see how she was treated.
We live in a world where we are going to see a lot of people being turned away for this, that, and the other.
I expect to be turned away simply because I'm a little overweight at some clinics when I have a child.
So a question I have for this is since when has women's rights and health issues become so unimportant? Since when does a book dictate the way a person lives and raises their families? Why is that religion comes before doing something right?
