Did a botched Abortion end up killing two? Colorado. Why is anyone surprised? Sadly the states that allow the open killing of babies don't keep track of how many babies and their mothers die from a botched abortion. The latest?
Alexis “Lexi” Arguello, 18, from Colorado, died on February 6th following a botched abortion at a Planned Parenthood clinic. The clinic allegedly delayed emergency transport for the teenager to a local hospital from the Fort Collins facility.
The most serious risks during abortion procedures include:
- Severe Hemorrhaging – Uncontrolled bleeding can quickly turn fatal if not promptly treated.
- Infection and Sepsis – Bacterial infections after abortion can rapidly spread if proper medical protocols are not followed.
- Incomplete Abortion – Retained fetal tissue can lead to infection and organ failure.
- Uterine Perforation or Internal Injury – Misuse of surgical instruments can cause life-threatening damage to reproductive organs.
- Incomplete Abortion: If not all pregnancy tissue is removed, a repeat procedure may be needed.
- Retained Blood Clots: Blood clots can form in the uterus, causing severe cramping and potentially requiring further treatment.
- Injury to the Cervix: The cervix can be cut or torn during the procedure.
- Anesthesia-Related Complications: As with any medical procedure involving anesthesia, complications can arise.
