Pregnant woman who suffered an incomplete miscarriage was left to bleed for TEN DAYS but emergency room staff turned her away because of Wisconsin's outright ban on abortion

A woman having an incomplete miscarriage was refused help by doctors at her local emergency room as they felt they had to enforce Wisconsin's 1849 ban on abortions.

The unidentified woman bled for ten days after staff refused to remove the fetal tissue from her uterus.

They reportedly feared they would be in violation of the 170-year-old law, which came back into effect after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade.

Carley Zeal, a gynecologist at Mercyhealth Cancer Center in southern Wisconsin, gave her medication to expel the fetal tissue.

Because the medicine needed to end a miscarriage is similar to that used to end a pregnancy, doctors have said they are unsure whether to hand it out post-Roe.

Zeal told the Washington Post: 'It really delayed her care.

This is an example of why the Daily Mail is not a reliable source.

Your parenthetic piety made me laugh during a very serious story. Oops! I did it again.

If they don’t know how to deal with a miscarriage then yes. They should have had the sense to know this is NOT an abortion. They just did this to protest what happened with roe.

Lee the only reason I even posted this is I’ve heard this story from another source. DM just bothered to carry it, and the woman it happened to.

In the other story I heard about the doctor was on the phone with a lawyer for hours trying to figure out if he could help her. I thought then “how retarded”.

That’s my thought.
The ER dr did not make the point tho. He/she only showed how idiotic he/she looked

They can come up with these “horror” stories until they’re blue in the face, but it doesn’t change anything. Roe v Wade is gone. If they want different outcomes in their states, leftists need to convince enough people to side with them.

It’s democracy — you know, the thing they scream continuously about...

A natural miscarriage is not an abortion. Yes, it may involve removing fetal tissue, but the fetus has already died which could lead to the death of the mother without medical intervention.

My wife miscarried during her first pregnancy. It was the most blood I have ever seen. It was also extremely difficult time emotionally as well.

Happened to me.

We lost our fourth pregnancy in 2005 due to a miscarriage. My girlfriend asked me to babysit her son. She brought him despite him being sick. Unbeknownst to us, he had Fifths disease (a version of the chicken pox which is very dangerous to unborn children). I miscarried about 10 days later. Went to the hospital and they confirmed we no longer had a heartbeat.

Not all the tissue came out at home. The hospital warned me it would eventually come out and usually happens naturally.
Unfortunately, my body was still in baby mode and kept depositing blood in the uterus, so I bled for days. The day it all finally came out, I was clotting so bad I had to grab my toddler’s diapers to catch all the bloody mess. Then came the labor pains while I pushed everything out. I passed out on the bathroom floor from blood loss.

My 3 year old found me and brought me the phone. Thankfully, I have awesome neighbors that came to me rescue. They got me to the hospital, took care of my kids, notified my husband at work, etc.

Had it not all come out, they would have had to perform a D&C.

This story reminds how early last year every other day there was a report about an anti-vaxxer who contracted Covid and died in agony loudly wishing he’d gotten the shot.
I’m guessing an essential trait for propagandists is an utter lack of shame.

What you’re describing is not an abortion and no MD worth a plug nickel would call it such.
