So you're 19 or 20 and in labour

[Suezoled]

laying in a bed, feeling as if you're on fire. The baby is advancing and because of complications, your time in this life is just about up.

So is that it for you? Those 19, 20 years are the limit of your life?

Nothing after?

Sorry,

The way you spelled "Labour" I thought you were talking about Tony Blair.

I envision a new thread over in humor, in the vein of the Top Ten List Challenge (http://www.randi.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=28439)

i.e... " So, you are 19 or 20 and ........ "

Any variation and you're toast.

If you're having a baby, then I'd agree that your life is pretty much over.

I'm sure that if what put the young woman in that position was a member of a church that mandated carrying out a live birth for the "sin" of having sex, and perhaps even furthermore kept the young woman away from qualified medical doctors (especially in deference to "prayer" or other such nonsense), then she believes there will be something "after".

Doesn't make her right.

If she had only had those "sinful" sonograms and other such "evil" prenatal things, she might have had another 70 years and seen her great grandchildren. Probably including this child's progeny.

Instead she dies, the infant dies.

Tough.

I couldn't understand since I don't speak spanish. So I don't know what the big deal is. I think she should have gone to an American doctor to begin with. JMO.
