Abortion... What about RU486?
Warning!
You have the right to know that this drug has an unsafe record and bad side effects. Unlike the FDA's scientific approval of all other drugs, this drug was approved for use by women based on it's profit potential for the abortion industry and political pressure from their cult like followers. Many cases of abortion related deaths are aggressively disputed, and those who report them are subject to intimidation.
Think of a pill that you take and that's all there is to it. If you believe that I'm sure you would like to buy some swamp land in Florida too. This is probably the most insidious idea, akin to a carnival con. It looks simple it sounds simple, and guess what? You still have to go in for an Abortion. Some one figured out that if you are hesitant to walk into an Abortion Clinic, you will take a pill not realizing that you will have to go to the Clinic to Finish the job anyway! This degrades and humiliates women in that they thought this would be something simple, and the most private of all, something that would occur behind the safe walls of there own home. Worst of all this could be given to you with out you knowing. For this reason alone, women should fight to ban it's use.
If you have used this method and have had problems some will
tell you it is your fault,
don't get burned again, seek legal help. This drug can kill.
Also we will be glad to share your story if you would like to, (and
we respect your privacy).

My husband and I decided on an abortion after I ended up pregnant a
year after his vasectomy. At the abortion clinic, the staff persuaded
us that the pill was the easiest of methods so we decided on the RU486
pill. On wednesday I took the first pill, on friday evening I inserted
the remaining pills, passed everything early saturday morning and everything
seemed fine for the next week. The following saturday night I noticed
a foul smell, I slept in on sunday morning much later than usual and
after an hour and a half of being awake, I collapsed and went into septic
shock, hot sweats, seeing stars, couldn't hear, white as a ghost, etc..
My husband put me in the truck, dialed 911 told them everything, they
told him to put my feet up. He loaded our 2 kids in the truck and drove
to the highway to meet the ambulance. After about 30 minutes I seemed
to be coming back around, the paramedics gave me oxygen, my blood pressure
was low, my heart beat irregular. They refused to let my husband take
me, so they loaded me up in the ambulance and rushed me to the hospital
with my husband tailgating the ambulance the entire drive. The ER was
prepared for me and knew of the abortion. I was in the ER for 9 hours
with no antibiotics, no pelvic exam, no pain meds. Finally they did
an ultrasound on me which they found that there was still tissue inside
the uterus. The ER doc finally did a pelvic exam and finally called
the OB/GYN on call, she was there in minutes, examined me again and
had me in surgery in 10 minutes. Of course we had to sign papers that
she may have to do a hysterectomy, etc.. if things got worse, luckily
she didn't have to. They put me on very heavy antibiotics through I.V.
and admitted me. I stayed until the following evening and had over 7
bags of antibiotics in me. Now I have a nice size hospital bill due
to our deductible and don't know which way to go from here.
I don't want this to happen to anyone else. We were told by the doctor
that gave us the pills that he had done over 2000 and never had any
problems. Now that I have researched and have read of others dying of
septic shock my heart is in my stomach. I feel that
if my husband wouldn't have reacted as fast as he did I may too be dead.
If you have any info that could help me or maybe a direction that you
could send me in, we would be very appreciative. I have spoken to a
lawyer but he insisted that I could only go after the manufacture of
the pill or find a lawsuit that is already being done. Thank you for
your time, (Name withheld by request)
Note: The doctor who lied can not be held responsible and One has to wonder if the CDC has any record of this case happening...

Lawsuit Alleges Medical Malpractice in RU-486-Related
Death
By Christine Hall
9/3/2002 4:00:00 AM
(CNSNews.com) - The abortion clinic that administered the drug RU-486 to a Tennessee woman allegedly failed to diagnose a life-threatening medical condition, resulting in her death, according to a malpractice lawsuit filed by the deceased woman's estate.
Brenda A. Vise, a 38-year-old Hamilton County, Tenn. resident, died
on Sept. 12, 2001, the lawsuit alleges, from a massive infection resulting
from a ruptured ectopic (tubal) pregnancy, five days after she visited
the Knoxville abortion clinic and began taking the RU-486 drug combination.

Drug-induced abortion led to the death of an
18-year-old Livermore woman
9/17/03
The 18-year-old was given the abortion pill a week earlier by a Planned Parenthood Clinic in Hayward, where she sought it without the knowledge of her father. When she fell ill Sept. 14, her boyfriend rushed her to Valley Care Medical Center, where she reportedly was told that her pain and bleeding were normal, and she was sent home with painkillers.
She returned to the hospital three days later, on Sept. 17, and died. (Source)
