She showed up at Piedmont Henry Hospital in need of a routine procedure to clear it from her uterus, called a dilation and curettage, or D&amp;C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut just that summer, her state had made performing the procedure a felony, with few exceptions. Any doctor who violated the new Georgia law could be prosecuted and face up to a decade in prison\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cBut ProPublica obtained reports that confirm that <strong>at least two women have already died after they couldn\u2019t access legal abortions and timely medical care in their state\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cThurman\u2019s case marks the first time an abortion-related death, officially deemed \u2018preventable,\u2019 is coming to public light\u2026&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cBut since abortion was banned or restricted in 22 states over the past two years, women in serious danger have been turned away from emergency rooms and told that they needed to be in more peril before doctors could help. <\/strong>Some have been forced to continue high-risk pregnancies that threatened their lives. Those whose pregnancies weren\u2019t even viable have been told they could return when they were \u2018crashing.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ON THE RECORD: Hours after this reporting, JD Vance praised Donald Trump for overturning <\/strong><strong><em>Roe v.
