Not terminating clear life detrimental anomalies is one retarded (hah) hill to die on.Okay, this makes me MATI because this bitch is lying about the case.
1. Kate took her case to a lower court. Female court allowed the abortion.
2. Texas Supreme Court, under the direction of Ken Paxton, said no, she doesn't have that right because she's not actively dying.
3. Texas has no exemptions for lethal anomalies.
4. No doctor would perform the abortion unless she was actively dying, and even then they must consult hospital lawyers to get permission.
5. The ENTIRE REASON she went to a court WAS BECAUSE SHE LEGALLY WAS NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE AN ABORTION.
6. She had repeat C-sections and another would jeopardize her life.
If there were clear exceptions she would not have needed to leave the state.
Here's a moid calling her a straight up murderer:

Again, she WENT TO COURT to get permission. Her health WAS at risk. But of course she's a murderer.

The life of someone with T18 usually isn't very long either. Something like 90% of cases or more die before their first birthday. Longterm survivors are the exception, not the rule.Not terminating clear life detrimental anomalies is one retarded (hah) hill to die on.
You're just bringing that baby to a life of suffering not to mention the rest of the family. As painful as it might be the alternative is just a life long worsening of life conditions to everyone involved
That's even more retarded. just doing the whole song and dance of birthing the baby to have it die next month, unnecesary crueltyThe life of someone with T18 usually isn't very long either.

Pharmaceuticals make so much money off these people like folks wouldn’t believe. PL, but I had access to support plans and these people were on pages of medications: medications, medications for the side effects of those medications, and then more for those, and most of it goes to Medicaid. Every extremely disabled person on med waiver becomes a pharma slush fund for tax dollars.I don't know, it sounds like a decision society should make for at least the very worst trisomies. These idiots often inflict enormous costs on society with even a single absolutely useless, not even sentient tard thing that will never even experience life. How many kids who could be saved don't get saved to spend millions of dollars giving heroic medical care to a fucking potato?
Rather than aborting the thing and being done with it, the family would then have to go through the heartache of caring for the child knowing that it's doomed, and then having to bury it afterward. Abortion isn't a picnic but it's better than the alternative.The life of someone with T18 usually isn't very long either. Something like 90% of cases or more die before their first birthday.

Yeah abortion of a wanted pregnancy due to severe fetal anomaly is the least shitty option in a completely shit situation, as I've seen one woman who had an abortion for fetal anomaly say.Rather than aborting the thing and being done with it, the family would then have to go through the heartache of caring for the child knowing that it's doomed, and then having to bury it afterward.

Here's a video from a woman with normal facies and intelligence who discovered that she had 3% mosaicism for Down syndrome herself. She's had 4 pregnancies and 3 of them, one of which miscarried, had full Down's. I had no idea this was even possible.
It was 3% of the sample and/or her ovaries are part of that 3%. Stranger things have happened.I find mosaicism kind of hard to get my head around, but isn’t it interesting that only 3% of her body’s cells have T21, and yet she’s had so many T21 pregnancies? Or is it a case of the particular genetic test they performed only found 3% in that particular sample?
Maybe the germline cells are all or mostly T21. Sometimes mosaicism affects only one or a few systems.I find mosaicism kind of hard to get my head around, but isn’t it interesting that only 3% of her body’s cells have T21, and yet she’s had so many T21 pregnancies?

Correct, and these or those cells may go only to the placenta, which probably explains quite a few "wrong" genetic tests, and not just for trisomies.Maybe the germline cells are all or mostly T21. Sometimes mosaicism affects only one or a few systems.
>maybe I'm heartlessMaybe I'm heatless but if you have two babies with downs, a statistical abnormality that should make you think something is very wrong, and instead of seeking genetic testing you decide to have another disabled kid you are a fucking disgrace.
Downs is a severe illness in the best of cases and a living nightmare at worst. They're not cute happy childlike people.
Except for rare exceptions involving germline mutations, Down syndrome isn't inheritable unless it's caused by a translocation. I think this woman had to have a mosaic translocation of chromosome 21, which she passed on to her offspring. Basically, all of her chromosomes are present in the right number, but in some cells, the chromosomes aren't all in the right place.Here's a video from a woman with normal facies and intelligence who discovered that she had 3% mosaicism for Down syndrome herself.

It's rare to be a carrier of a trisomy. A true trisomy is a spontaneous occurrence that occurs during cell division (or during gametogenesis). Trisomies, like all aneuploidies, are the result of an event called nondisjunction.People who have a child with any kind of diagnosed trisomy should have genetic testing, because some people are silent carriers. Of course, deciding whether to have more children is a decision only they can make.
Yeah, this is also possible. Germline mosaicism is inheritable, because the mutation occurs in the gonads and affects the sperm or eggs prior to fertilization. It would also sort of make the "3%" thing make more sense, but if only 3% of the woman's eggs were affected, she has terrible luck to have conceived more than one baby with T21.Maybe the germline cells are all or mostly T21. Sometimes mosaicism affects only one or a few systems.
Until, in this woman's case, she is trying to reproduce.Mosaic trisomy is interesting but I'd imagine the exact prognosis varies with where the effected cells are. You're in a lot less danger if they're in your reproductive organs than heart and lungs, for example.
Bosco? Bosco is a dog name.7 Tennessee women and 2 doctors are going to court like the Texas women over the states abortion ban denying them abortions for nonviable pregnancies. Including a woman who had warning signs for pre-eclampsia and was forced to continue the pregnancy despite the fetus being diagnosed as nonviable at 15wks (it was ultimately stillborn at 7 months).
Also, some fundies and theirdead t18 spudssuper special perfect jesus babies
