Former Vice President Mike Pence is leaning in on his anti-abortion stance as he campaigns for the Republican presidential nomination.
But Pence, an evangelical Christian, for whom the issue is deeply personal, argues restricting abortion is “more important than politics" and calls it the “cause of our time.”
There are a number of fetal conditions in which doctors generally agree there is “truly zero probability for a healthy outcome,” including anencephaly, a severe neural tube defect in which the skull doesn’t form and the brain is exposed, said David Hackney, a spokesperson for the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine and a high-risk obstetrician in the Cleveland area.
Hackney said with early membrane rupture, “you do have rare survivors,” but that “exceedingly poor prognosis” comes with a litany of risks, including hemorrhaging, blood loss and dangerous infection, which can cause permanent infertility, shock and sepsis as women wait to deliver or qualify for abortions under “life of the mother” exceptions.
“It’s completely uncharted territory,” Neal said. “Before all of this, almost nobody chose this. ... It was very uncommon that someone would choose to wait ... because realistically any outcome that would result in a live birth is so slim.” “How lethal does it have to be?” Peaceman asked. “Does it have to die within the first few hours? Or the first 30 days?”
