    Wrong. All the doctors had to do was note her life was in danger and perform anything necessary to save her. They chose not to. The Texas Supreme Court ruled it is not the courts job to be a doctor.

    The Law is clear!

    Then why did Barnica have to wait until doctors could legally act? And had they not waited, and gotten an abortion like Cox did, would she have died?

    Also, why did Cox's doctors petition the courts to be able to legally perform an abortion when they did? A petition that ultimately, the Texas Supreme Court denied.

    Because doctors failed her? I do not know? But it was not because of the Texas Law. The law is and has been clear! They had every right to protect the mothers they were caring for with an abortion if the mothers life was at risk.

    Sadly I believe there are doctors who are/were willing to put a patients life at risk over this issue. If you think it is okay to kill the most innocent for convenience. Then it is easy to see how one would lack the moral character to do what it best for their patient imo. And sadly I think there are many like you (including doctors) that believe it is okay to kill a child for convenience via abortion.

    What I think is irrelevant. And you really think multiple doctors, all OBGYN's, would break their hippocratic oath and purposely kill their patients? For what purpose?

    Think logically. Why did Cox's doctors sue to allow for a legal abortion? Not because they wanted her to die. Because they wanted her to live. And who stopped the doctors from performing the abortion in Texas? The law, backed by a Texas Supreme Court judgement.

    Now, in walks Barnica. She's in the same state as Cox was when she arrived at the hospital. The doctors knew the law prevented action at that moment, and forced her to wait until the doctors could legally act. But it was too late, and she died.

    100 OBGYN Doctors in the state are angry and frustrated enough to sign a letter demanding to change the law. It's this the action of professionals wishing to cause harm and kill their patients?

    You are grasping for straws accusing doctors wanting to harm people instead of actually placing the blame where it belongs. The law. It goes too far, and as a result, since the law has passed, Texas maternal mortality rate has skyrocketed. Forget what I want. Who wants more dead women because of a law? Apparently you do? Because gosh forbid you admit the law is the problem.
