If an inevitable miscarriage is already happening and has been diagnosed as such, to ask for an induced labor is not only 100% ethical, but 100% legal and necessary.<br /><br />Be it manipulation or just blatant ignorance, truth must be spoken out about this case: abortion was never necessary to save Savita's life, but would have only added more risks to her health.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12890908501978783806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-41990427836456651442012-12-01T08:54:21.967-05:002012-12-01T08:54:21.967-05:00Patrick, all the reports are that her husband rela...Patrick, all the reports are that her husband relayed that she asked for labor to be induced. When a patient is already in the process of a miscarriage, that is considered routine obstetric care, not an abortion. If her husband was telling the truth, then she did not ask for an abortion. It's slander for people to say that she requested one.

The corruption of the media in just about all matters is a serious problem which our society needs to tackle.<br /><br />However I'm wondering where you got the info that Savita did not ask for an abortion. In all the accounts I've read, either she or her husband did ask, and more than once, for what the media call an "abortion". There is no way of knowing, I think, what Savita herself called it. In fact she may not have asked for the procedure at all since there is no mention of her request in the medical records (of course, there is the outside chance that the request was not recorded or the records where tampered with).<br /><br />Most importantly, though, you are correct that an assisted delivery could have been done if that was medically indicated. It was not Irish abortion laws that caused the tragedy.<br />Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02880952335639606535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-3951509952611432632012-11-30T23:09:53.463-05:002012-11-30T23:09:53.463-05:00stanchaz, it's so interesting that you, in you...stanchaz, it's so interesting that you, in your "don't be a sheep" rant, blindly pass along all the abortion-advocacy talking points. <br /><br />If you don't want to be a sheep, then stop following the abortion-rights groups and start doing your own investigating into things. Stop believing everything they tell you.<br />Christina Duniganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04785550737493692252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-17620279747415771302012-11-30T23:00:12.344-05:002012-11-30T23:00:12.344-05:00It’s about time ...it’s WAY past time
...for peop...It’s about time ...it’s WAY past time<br /> ...for people to take control of their own destiny, their own lives. <br />There are so many priests, preachers, and assorted shamans<br /> out there --"men of the cloth"- <br />who have the unmitigated gall, the sheer arrogance,<br /> of claiming to speak for God, and with God. <br />And we ...we must listen, and follow, and obey. Or so they say. <br />They claim a direct pipeline to the Almighty! <br />God did this, God told me. God loves that. God hates this. <br />God wants this. Oh, and drop another coin in the basket<br />before you leave please ...as God demands.<br />It's gotten so bad that now they think that.... they ARE God<br />- with THE “RIGHT” TO TAKE WOMEN’S LIVES! <br /> ENOUGH already! I say to them all: <br />Go back to whatever burrow you came from, <br />you charlatans, and leave us -and our country- alone. <br />For we're a free and proud people, , and will remain so <br />- without- your shameful meddling in both our private lives, <br />and our public institutions.<br />For Religion is a personal matter -<br />NOT something to be FORCED on others!<br />Don't just accept something because it comes from <br />a religious "voice of authority". <br />For ultimately YOU are responsible for your life,<br /> and how you try to live it.<br /> That’s why you have freedom of choice and a conscience: <br />to choose, NOT just to blindly follow.....<br />We need to start acting like Men and Women...not sheep.stanchazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953789573883212572noreply@blogger.com
