But Under Arizona's draconian abortion laws she was told she would have to wait until her baby's heart stopped or she became seriously infected before her medical team would be allowed to intervene. She was in pain and scared. Scared she could suffer future infertility or even die. This is the devastating reality of a post Roe America. (00:33–00:46)
