Powerful commentary on the idea that “abortion is healthcare.” Because clearly the possibility needs to be available. Your situation may be unusual, but it’s far from unique. Thanks for introducing a bit of real world into our triathlon fantasy game.

Sorry about your pregnancy problems. It totally sucks. Thankfully you live in CA. Living in Texas i have advised wimen against getting pregnant and having their IVF in another state.

Maternal AND infant mortality have hit an all-time high in Texas, because more having are not having any other choice but to carry a pregnancy until the end regardless if their child has a lethal anomaly and will spend his/her brief time on earth suffering or if it risks the mither’s life. Unfortunately with so many healthcare issues the care you are able to get depends on your zipcode. Yay, for the richest country on earth. Pretty much all of Europe does it better.
