Unfortunately, these advocates for human life fail to advocate for the women's lives who are put at risk because other people decided to make their path toward treatment more difficult. For women with life-threatening conditions who will die without treatment but who cannot get treatment while pregnant, for women with pre-existing health conditions who do not want to risk carrying a high-risk pregnancy to term, for women who were told their baby has no heartbeat but are unable to access a D&C that could be life-saving, for women who are suffering with a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy but cannot do anything to end it-legislations that limit abortion make it that much more difficult for these individuals to get care. Sure, many pro-lifers are okay with an exception in these circumstances, but the reality of the fact is that once the physician is faced with legal consequences for performing certain procedures, many will be uncertain of where the boundary is, and many women will suffer and die in the process. For example, if a cancer patient can probably survive the child's birth, it might not be classified as a medical emergency that warrants an abortion, even if skipping treatment will drastically increases her risk of dying eventually. Why should she be killed in favor of something that doesn't even have a nervous system yet?
