(ANSA) – WASHINGTON, AUG 20 – A Louisiana woman was denied the right to have an abortion despite her doctors having advised her after ten weeks to terminate the pregnancy following a very serious congenital malformation of the fetus, acrania, that is, the lack of the skull, which would not have allowed him to survive until a few days after giving birth. But the hospital has decided not to proceed for fear of violating the law, which prohibits abortion except in the event of a life threatening for the woman.
The lawyers of Nancy Davis, this is her name, have denounced “the horrible cruel position in which the state of Louisiana has placed the woman, leaving her with only two choices: carry on the pregnancy until the inevitable death of the fetus or travel to another. He was to get the termination of the pregnancy he had so painfully decided on. ” The person concerned, in the 14th week of gestation, seems to have chosen the second path.
