Nancy Davis—who traveled from Louisiana to New York for an abortion—was forced to carry a fetus with a deadly skull deformity for six weeks due to her state's post-Roe trigger law banning most abortions.
"I felt like we made the best decision for our baby as well as ourselves," Davis said during a Monday"It's still taken an emotional toll on me. I have problems sleeping at night, I have problems eating; it's been very emotionally draining," she added."It was extremely traumatizing, it was mentally draining in all aspects, it was physically draining."
While Louisiana's abortion ban has a broad exception for fetuses that would die outside the womb, acrania is not included on the state's list of medical conditions that qualify for such an exception. Civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump, who is representing Davis, said during the press conference that Louisiana's law was causing his client to suffer"unspeakable pain, emotional damage, and physical risk."
