A representative of the Florida Republic Kat Cammack revealed that last year she almost died of her six -week insurance for abortions, which caused the hospital staff to treat her ectopic pregnancy, fearing prosecution.
Speaking to Wall Street Journal37 -year -old Cammack reported his experience in the nameless Emergency Department of Florida Hospital in 2024. On 31 May, when it was found that her baby’s embryo was not able to survive and that her own life is at risk of without actions.
The doctor discovered an implanted embryo where the fallopian tube meets the uterus, the corn ectopic pregnancy, and said openly to the spokesman, “If it ruptures, it will kill you.”

However, after deciding to surgery, the building’s doctors and nurses had to be persuaded to give it a shot of methotrexate, which she demanded to push out pregnancy.
This was because at the beginning of that month, a six -week insurance came into force, so the staff feared they could lose their medical licenses and be sent to prison if they give it a drug that blocks the folic acid flow to the embryo to prevent its growth.
Cammack was only five weeks pregnant at the time, the embryo had no heartbeat, and its own safety was dangerous, but nevertheless a member of the Congress was forced to attract the law of the law to argue and even called the governor Ron Ron Ron, unable to achieve it.
Since then, the Florida regulatory authorities have published new guidelines on how to find out the situation, and the Cammack, which is life -threatening and contradicts the abortion, unless there are rape and incest, or when the mother’s life risks, is again pregnant and is appropriate in August.
But surprisingly, given her ordeal, the representative does not feel that the law itself is guilty, and instead of blaming democrats for intimidating medical professionals for confusion for his responsibility.
“It was absolutely fear of the worst,” Cammack said The magazine Acknowledging that reproductive rights activists can draw the opposite conclusion from its history.
“There will be a few comments like ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ though what I have experienced was not an abortion,” she said.
Cammack also acknowledged that in recent years, the fierce political atmosphere associated with recent years has not done the best interests of future mothers.

“I would stand with any woman – republican or democrat – and fight for a situation where they are experiencing a miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy,” she said.
“We turned a conversation about women’s health care in two camps: pink hats and pink stripes. This is either breast cancer or abortion.”
She said it is very important for women to conduct discussions about reproductive rights between home Republicans, as men are over six against one of their masks, and reports that one of her fellow men “almost drowned under the table” when she mentioned breastfeeding in a recent conversation.
Alison Haddock, President of the American Emergency Physicians’ College The magazine This becomes commonplace for states that have restricted abortion opportunities to worry about “whether their clinical solution will be prepared if there is a prosecution.”
“It was a real stress point for many of our doctors,” she said.
Molly Duane, a senior lawyer at the Reproductive Rights Center, took Cammack’s argument that the choice was to blame for the confusion, emphasizing that the Florida regulatory authorities have made it clear that they intend to aggressively implement their six -week insurance.
