Nancy Davis, in front of microphones at a press conference on Friday, says being denied an abortion in Louisiana was "not fair to me."

 

(CNN)A pregnant Louisiana woman who alleges she was denied an abortion despite the fetus being diagnosed with a fatal condition says other women should not have to experience her plight.

Nancy Davis said she is planning to get an abortion in another state after a Louisiana hospital allegedly chose not to perform the procedure even though her baby was diagnosed with acrania, a rare congenital disorder in which a fetus' skull does not form inside of the womb.

 

Acrania is a lethal condition with death within the first week of life, according to the Fetal Medicine Foundation.

Appalling but predicted outcome of the Republican’s assault on women’s right to abortion.

She’s going to another state to have her procedure done!

The Supreme court decided to leave it up to the each state laws, to abort  a  birth.

States rights prevail in abortion  ! They make the laws now!

The majority of women who want an abortion have low incomes. Do I need to spell out for you what the consequences of that are?

 

Gas, food, and a hotel: Americans seeking an abortion out of state already shell out up to $10,000 for the procedure. Experts warn that cost could rise.

The Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade will force Americans to travel across state lines to access abortions, experts say. 
Checkered access to abortions will increase the cost of travel, among other expenses.  
The potential legal costs for people seeking abortions, as well as wage loss, will also add to the burden.

Gee, that sounds a lot like how slavery worked.  In both cases, people are denied the right to make decisions over their own bodies and both have to flee to another state.  Hmmm....
