In a rare case, a brain-loving woman in Georgia gave birth to the child through a C-section, while life was placed on support, her family said. Doctors put mother, Adriana Smith on life support in accordance with the abortion laws of US State of Georgia.Chance’s name, child was born on Friday and is currently being taken care of in the newborn intensive care unit. She weighed 1LB 13oz (0.8 kg) at birth, female mother, April Newcomek described the local TV station 11 as alive.“He is expected to recover,” Smith’s mother told the outlet. “He is just fighting. We just want to pray for him,” he said.Newcomek said that his daughter would be supported by life on Tuesday (local time). “It is difficult to process,” he said. “I am his mother. I should not bury my daughter. My daughter should bury me,” she said.Earlier in February, Adriana Smith, a 31 -year -old nurse visited a hospital with a serious headache, but according to Newcomer, the drug was given and sent home.“He gave him some medicines, but he did not do any test. No CT scan,” Newcomek told 11Alive in May. He said, “If he had done it or kept him overnight, he would have catch it. It could have been stopped.”The next day, Smith woke up gasping for the wind. He was rushed to Mori University Hospital, where doctors found blood clots in his brain and declared his brain-ear.At that time, Smith was more than three months away from his due date. However, his family said that doctors told him that they could not take life support or remove breathing equipment due to strict abortion laws of Georgia, which ban the fetal heart activity after detecting expiration, usually about six weeks in pregnancy.The BBC reported that Nucirk said that his grandson may face serious health issues that include potential blindness and difficulty in walking or surviving due to their daughter’s health complications.He had earlier expressed disappointment that the family’s decision to continue life support was not left. “This decision should have been left with us. Now we are wondering what kind of life it is – and we are going to raise it,” he said earlier.What is Georgia’s heartbeat bill?Georgia’s heartbeat bill, passed in 2019 and implemented since July 2022, once the fetal heart activity has been detected, usually around six weeks of pregnancies. The law became effective following the US Supreme Court’s decision to reverse the 2022 weeping We Wade, which had earlier guaranteed the constitutional rights of women for abortion.
