She was then forced to continue carrying until he died.
When that happened, living in a nightmare, she had a cesarean section to deliver her deceased baby’s body. This was a much wanted pregnancy.

She is absolutely despondent.

Her family considered trying to get her out on the water in a boat, but she’s surrounded by states that have the same laws.

I don’t know if it was an injunction, or what method the state used legally, I just got off the phone with her auntie, who is beside herself.

Are the stories being told? Do people understand how women are being so grotesquely used?
