An incredibly heartbreaking story is circling in the news. Two years ago, a Georgia mom named Amber Thurman took abortion pills to end the life of her two twins, suffered sepsis as a complication of the abortion pill, and died because parts of her dead babies were still inside of her.
It is absolutely disgusting that now the pro-abortion media is claiming it’s the fault of pro-life laws.
But the reality is the opposite: it’s pro-abortion laws that helped end Amber and her babies’ lives. If the abortion pill wasn’t on the market, Amber and her twins would be alive today.
The abortion pills and medical negligence caused the death of this Georgia mom. She took legal abortion pills, then doctors neglected to give her legal treatment (removing babies who were already dead).

ProPublica is one example of how mainstream news is spreading lies about what happened and pushing a pro-abortion agenda:
ProPublica is blaming Amber’s death on Georgia’s pro-life law. But as you can see, in white, Georgia’s law does not prohibit a D&C in Amber’s case.
Here’s the truth: Dilatation and Curettage or D&C procedures can be done as abortions – to intentionally kill a preborn child – but they can also be done as a necessary medical treatment to help mothers expel an already-deceased baby if it’s not happening naturally. One involves intentional killing, but the other does not, so D&C procedures are not always abortions.
D&C procedures are NOT illegal in Georgia unless used to intentionally kill a child in the womb, which was not Amber’s case. Her twins had no heartbeat and were already dead from the abortion pills.
As an overview of this tragic situation, here are four facts:
- D&Cs are not illegal in Georgia unless used to intentionally kill a child in the womb.
- Sepsis is a known risk of the abortion pill, which has a black box warning, despite claims that it is “safer than Tylenol.”
- ProPublica’s blaming of the pro-life law is speculation; the doctors never explained why a D&C was not performed quickly.
- ProPublica isn’t being honest about Georgia’s pro-life law.

We must educate and spread the truth about the consequences and evil of abortion in order to save lives. Amber needed emotional and material support for her and her babies – not abortion pills. That’s what we must fight for.
