Summary
Eighteen-year-old Nevaeh Crain died from sepsis after Texas’s abortion ban delayed critical medical intervention during her pregnancy complications.
Despite multiple ER visits and severe symptoms, doctors waited to confirm fetal demise before acting due to the state’s restrictive laws. Crain endured intense pain and deteriorating health over multiple hospital visits, ultimately suffering a miscarriage and passing away from internal bleeding.
Medical experts believe timely intervention could have saved her. Her mother, Candace Fails, is pursuing legal accountability but faces significant legal hurdles under Texas’s stringent emergency care standards.
Whatever, Texas, you voted you got it.
A 18 year old absolutely didnt vote, not that it makes a difference you bloodthirsty fiend

They were 18 you really think they “choose” to live in t*xas?
Well, who knows what they choose, but the parents could have left Texas at any time.
She didn’t choose it.
She didn’t choose to be pregnant?
Where do you live?
Obviously not in a state that has these issues.
Be more specific, I want to know what issues your area has that you have coming to you.
None. Solid blue. My state doesn’t have these sorts of medieval issues. That is unless trump gets elected and then who the fuck knows at that point.
Wow must be nice living in a Utopia, luckily you’ll never fall into any Kafkaesque bureaucratic nightmare.
Eh, no sympathy from me, you have it coming.
Did they, though? Do we know how Nevaeh Crain and Candace Fails voted? Would that somehow make it okay?
The fact thay people who have done nothing to support these policies can still be killed by them is PRECISELY the problem.
They shouldn’t get pregnant in Texas because the laws in Texas could kill them. Wear a condom if you fuck in Texas.
(I realize that in some situations, like rape, it’s not up to the woman and in those cases my snarky comments do not apply)
Oh so abstinence should be the policy. Got it. Good plan.
No, condoms should be the policy.

“Fails and Crain believed abortion was morally wrong. The teen could only support it in the context of rape or life-threatening illness, she used to tell her mother. They didn’t care whether the government banned it, just how their Christian faith guided their own actions.”
