She was nervous and pregnant after being assaulted by her uncle, a drug addict; she died because of excessive bleeding due to development fetus outside the uterus, are the some examples of women who lost their live because of not getting proper treatment due to the anti-abortion law. In the nine months of pregnancy, the development of babies out side uterus, or occasional bleeding during pregnancy, hemorrhage of the fetus can cause the urgent requirement of the termination on the baby, unless mother and baby both can lost their lives.
Nicaragua has banned abortion almost a year back is converting into graveyard for pregnant women seeking abortion due to any above stated reasons. In all over the world 35 countries have banned all abortions. However, in Nicaragua the ban is imposed by Evangelical groups and the churches. The supporter of this ban says that advance medical techniques can solve all the complications that a woman might come across during her pregnancy.
The recent ban has motivated many women to endanger their lives while opting for illegal abortion. It is not only unsafe but also harming their health very badly. They most frequently take drugs or pull the fetus out on their own using wires or other crude objects.
It appears that religious conservatism and coward politicians ( including President Daniel Ortega who has refused to oppose the church-supported ban recently) are very much responsible for these deaths. We can only suggest a woman, not to go for abortion but if the pregnancy is dangerous for her life then it is advisable to terminate it to save at least one life. I hope JESUS is fully agreed with me!
