In June 2022, the United States Supreme Court stripped away constitutional protections for abortion that had stood for nearly a half-century. Pro-life supporters cheered on the ruling, while pro-choice supporters pledged to fight it. Now, in a post-Roe America, women are caught at the center of legal confusion because of these often-vague state laws. Nancy Davis says she was about 10 weeks pregnant when the fetus she was carrying was diagnosed with acrania, a fatal condition where the fetus’ skull does not form inside the womb. She claims she tried to have an abortion, but doctors denied her, because in her home state of Louisiana, abortions are banned. In an exclusive interview with Dr. Phil, Nancy and her partner, Shedric, reveal what she had to do to get a legal abortion. Nancy’s story is at the center of one of the decade’s most controversial and heated debates: abortion. Today, hear from both pro-choice and pro-life advocates. (21021)

It isnt fair to the tiny nascent human being to be murdered, either. All she said was "not fair to me". That isnt how motherhood works.
I also know of the healing power of our living God! Jeff Durbin and his wife, adopted a baby whilst it was still in the womb diagnosed with severe Spina bifida, and when it was born it came into an operating room full of doctors and surgeons prepped to operate however, thru prayer, the baby was born completely healthy. This is a bona fide miracle and I bet you never heard about this on the news. But it happens more than you would know. Search Jeff Durbin to find out more.
I know of TWO families who were told by multiple doctors and specialists to abort that their baby wouldn't survive.
Both parents rejected abortion and their babies are now thriving children!!!
So many times these in utero diagnoses are wrong.
"This country was founded on a lack of empathy and we just keep it going" She is 100% right. Don't trust republicans…ever….people have different limits and that should be respected.
Sickening that the senator is blaming doctors when the liability is real and there are no protections for doctors in the bill. If doctors got charged they would hear crickets from her.
This senator holds the most untenable position. Either you believe abortion is just a harmless procedure and should be completely legal or you believe it is the unjustified killing of an unborn child – in which case, anyone who purposefully commits such an act should be criminally punished.
Wow, first thing she does is backtrack on what she’s done. No integrity what so ever
'A red herring is a piece of information that's meant to distract people from something important in a misleading manner.'
In my opinion this is what the supreme court judges who overturned Roe VS. Wade did to America.
Doctor's, Scientists and world leaders have pleaded with U.S. politicians and lawmakers to look at the scientific evidence. They have condemned and criticized this decision by the supreme court worldwide. That should have been the first clue. The fact that the judges involved making this decision had ties to extremist groups and cults, some of who funded them, probably should have been the second one. However, let's review what happened together.
Politicians have stated that this medical procedure (abortion) isn't in the constitution.
There are 310 million major medical procedures performed each year, that are not in the constitution either. This does not mean a man now loses his due process, equality, can be enslaved and executed, because these 310 million surgeries don't exist in the constitution.
This also doesn't mean we now leave all or even one life-saving male related procedure up to all the States; especially when it's being handled by very ignorant, prejudice politicians, who have been swayed by propaganda that has been backed by billions of dollars. It's like asking everyone in the days of Hitler to think clearly. 🙄
There were 8 amendments in the constitution that should have protected a women's livelihood and very right to live. A medical procedure should not have changed that, especially over someone's religious believes that were never scientificly sound.
For example, if a man does not want to donate his blood, even if it means killing someone, he can. If he wants to go off life support with no higher brain activity (like a fetus), he can. If he steps on parasites, ants and hunts animals with literally more consciousness and intelligence than a fetus, then he can. No one turns around and calls him a killer, sends him off to jail for life, makes him pay 100,00 to the government, 20,000 to the family or is given an execution sentence. They'd think that's absurd 'if it was happening to him' and they'd be right! It's like the studies that have shown, people are often poor predictors of being in someone elses shoes. Even after all those scenarios, most women still only have the procedure early on when it's closer in comparison to a parasite, unless there are serious medical problems.
I was raised Catholic, but even I can understand the whole truth. If we put everyone's magical beliefs aside for one second, we'd understand that it's just a medical procedure that has been very well thought out.
So what is this medical procedure even doing in any law, let a lone having it left up to the states? And how did 8 federal amendments in the federal constitution just disappear for women altogether, because one medical procedure out of millions wasn't in the constitution? How did they even lose the right to privacy in the first place? There are a lot of good questions to ask. It may very well take some philosopher's, lawyers and judges to answer them.
It was said that this procedure wasn't "deeply rooted in the Nation’s history and tradition," even though it had been rooted in it for 50 years. This appears like a smoke screen response right from the beginning. How is '50 years' in of itself not rooted in history.' How many years is considered history?
Not that it matters, because before the 1820's it was 100% legal and nobody cared at all. Not the churches, States or federal government. It was as normal as any medical procedure, as it scientificly should be. So what changed? A pandemic, just like Covid in this era. The birthrate rate dropped. When this happens it can effect the economy, decrease soldiers and church members. They were very prejudice against forieners and would have preferred that the increased population came from within the country.
So they derived a plan. They outlawed abortion and put forced birth into law. They then came up with a story about how evil abortion is to get people to go along with it. After being told enough times over, people would then see it that way for many generations to come.
Women's banned abortion became a forced servitude for economic gains for both the state and country. Children were then put into over populated orphanages where they suffered greatly at first. It didn't last though. Abortion bans don't stop abortions for long, they just make them more dangerous for women. A lot of them would die from backalley abortions or get harmed in unimaginable ways from medical complications, while some even comitted suicide. The human mind is quite fragile. One women explained that an unwanted pregnancy was like 'wanting to gnaw off her arm.' Unfortunately, many politicians don't care about the human condition or how the procedure was 'life saving' on multiple levels.
If one could argue that 50 years wasn't 'enough history', then another could also argue that in history there was no law on a woman's body or reproductive rights at all. She was simply FREE! So why should one now leave her body up to the States to own, especially when it was with the intent of economic slavery to begin with. Doesn't this go against another amendment?
When Roe VS Wade was first excepted by judges, it was because the unduly restrictive state regulation of abortion was unconstitutional. So why do this again? It was also weighed based on due process of a citizen. The same due process from all these amendments that should protect a women's life. The current judges have made it so women now have less due process than the witch trials! Let that sink in. They are simply handed a death sentence or told to go off and be near death 'enough'. Some doctors won't even touch this situation in fear of being jailed too. It's actually easier to let them die. This is domestic terrorism by definition. Unfortunately that doesn't matter if no one understands what that means for a woman or does anything about it.
Maybe by some miracle these fanatical judges did manage to find a loophole to make women slaves. So much that they could argue almost all her rights out of the federal constitution; however, that still doesn't make it right. It also doesn't mean that 'the people' should have been okay with making another human being a slave to the point of torture and death. Someone should have put a stop to this.
How many people would love to go back in history and stop a genocide from happening before it did? To stop Hitler from killing the Jews or even to stop Putin from killing the Ukrainians.
The reality is some people were positioned into power within the U.S. too, who shouldn't be there and now a lot of people will be harmed if something's not done.
When has abortion ever been a Constitutional right?
Such a poor, biased episode. He never let Lila talk. Thank you Lila for standing up for life!
This show chose the panel and the audience to fit their pro-choice narrative. They want to make us think that the most of people in America agree with the masacre of children in the womb but there is nothing more far from reality than that.
Good for Lila Rose, a highly admirable, brave, bold woman👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
oh booohoooo 😢 you're not seriously telling me to sympathize with baby killers are you?
Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: `I desire mercy, not sacrifice. ' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
The doctor can advise what's best.
Why would anyone kill a disabled child in the womb through horrific means of suction and cutterage or a needle into the child's heart in the womb. It's inhumane. Children born with birth defects often do better than the prognosis the doctor gives and that child deserves to be loved for however long it is alive. It's all a bunch of cowardice nonsense. Support not abort. That's the motto we should choose because the mother's can get love and support to help deal with a disabled child. It would teach the world killing isn't a convenient solution. Love and sacrifice is the answer.
Abortion isn't a form of birth control, if you do not want or feel ready to be a parent then protect yourself with the dozens of contraceptives available which prove to be 99% effective as well as condoms. Women have control over their bodies, my wife has birthed 4 children and all of them were planned.
Hahahah Ben Crump
I have always been against abortion but I have always made a exception for life of the mother. Nothing changes. The biggest problem here is the extremes
This helps me to imagine how the conversations for the right of slave owners
to choose to kill their "property" might have went.
I guess Dr. Phil has NEVER seen the SPARK of Life under a Microscope.
These government officers or the politicians they don’t in my book to tell me what I can do with my body than god I’m pass the age of having children but about the rape victims or who have health issues can’t get and abortion because they will be charged like a criminal shame on all of you government politicians you don’t have have to worry about we’re the food or housing is coming from shame on all of you
Both Tim Tebow and Andrea Bocelli’s moms were advised to have abortions.
Dr Phil. Will you be my Grandpa?
Abortion should be legal all over the world . It is one of the most private and intimate decision every woman should be allowed to freely take and no matter what medical or social situation she has . I'm of Polish origin ( been living in France for years ) and in Poland it is strickly forbidden because of religion ( Poland is a deeply catholic country ) .
She’s a disgrace to Louisiana and we don’t claim her.
Of course the author of the abortion law, does not want to be in front of the people they effect. Let this be your calling when voting. When a representative is afraid to go in front of the people. They should stop being representatives. Get rid of her.
When I was a child in the 1950's my mom brought home a picture of a neighbors baby who was born with a long trunk on its face instead of a nose and it had one eye. She said the baby would die within a few months. Imagine that poor mother who had to hide her baby and care for it and watch it die.
Disgusting woman!! This exact thing has killed woman in Ireland and everyone knew it will start happening in America too.. and now politicans who wrote the law dare to say I don't understand what the doctor was thinking when she well knows that the law is written vague enough to doctors be afraid.. and most likely any medical professional wasn't listened when the law was written.. ofcourse they may have talked to some medical professional, but that doesn't mean that it had any effect on the law
