'They're Just Going to Let Me Die?' One Woman's Abortion Odyssey

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Madison Underwood was lying on the ultrasound table, nearly 19 weeks pregnant, when the doctor came in to say her abortion had been canceled.

Nurses followed and started wiping away lukewarm sonogram gel from her exposed belly as the doctor leaned over her shoulder to speak to her fiance, Adam Queen.

She recalled that she went quiet, her body went still. What did they mean, they couldn’t do the abortion? Just two weeks earlier, she and her fiance had learned her fetus had a condition that would not allow it to survive outside the womb. If she tried to carry to term, she could become critically ill, or even die, her doctor had said. Now, she was being told she couldn’t have an abortion she didn’t even want, but needed.

“They’re just going to let me die?” she remembers wondering.
Board cons, this is on you. This is your fault, for real. You are going to kill Women.

I am not the one deciding you are guilty, YOU ARE when you vote for ANY person with an R after their name. That vote has CONSEQUENCES.
I sigh in your general direction.
