In the Spring of 1994, a nineteen-year-old Nebraska woman, Sophie
Smith,[i] was admitted to the emergency room at a religiously
affiliated hospital with a blood clot in her lung. Tests revealed
that Smith was approximately ten weeks pregnant, and that the clotting
problem resulted from a rare and life-threatening condition
exacerbated by the pregnancy. The hospital immediately put Smith on
intravenous blood-thinners to eliminate the existing blood clot and to
help prevent the formation of more clots that could kill Smith
instantly if they lodged in her lungs, heart, or brain.
Smith’s doctors told her that she had two alternatives. She could
stay in the hospital on intravenous blood-thinners for the remaining
six-and-a-half months of her pregnancy. She would also need a
procedure in which doctors would insert an umbrella-like device into
one of her veins designed to catch blood clots before they reached a
vital organ. Or she could have a first-trimester abortion, switch to
oral blood thinners, and be released from the hospital. Smith decided
to have the abortion. She wanted to go home to care for her
two-year-old child.
