Anniversary: Slowly bled to death from undiagnosed perforation

The survivors of 29-year-old Kathleen Gilbert sued David Turow and Women's Aid Clinic when she died after her abortion.

The family accused Turow of performing an incomplete abortion, lacerating Kathleen's uterus, and failing to detect her injuries. She was sent home and continued to bleed and pass clots for a month before her death on May 2, 1985.

Kathleen's death certificate attributes the death to hemorrhage from a perforated uterus.
