This might not have happened in the US, but guess what Repubs, this is exactly what you are forcing on women here......

Woman dies after abortion request 'refused' at Galway hospital Savita Halappanavar's family said she asked several times for an abortion before she died.

The husband of a pregnant woman who died in an Irish hospital has said he has no doubt she would be alive if she had been allowed an abortion.

Irish women have come over to Great Britain for abortions for years.

That is really sad. :(

I agree. Part of Britain being a 'morally' lax nation, I suppose? I imagine it's largely down to religion? Women shouldn't have to travel for what, for many, if probably a traumatic procedure.

It's an old arguement, but I bet it true, if men could get pregnant, abortions would be done on every street corner. UGH..... And the Pill would be available in every vending machine. :o

I am glad the Church has built hospitals, I work in one, BUT they need to stay out of the practice. :o
