In the state of Texas, it's not just that abortions have been effectively banned.

Some hospitals have changed the way they treat pregnant patients.

Major hospitals across the state have made policies where they will not intervene in someone

who is having a miscarriage if there are heart tones detected unless the person is hemorrhaging

or is septic.

So until they are critically ill.

Dr. Gansler Mojetti is a physician who provides abortion care as part of her practice in Texas.

Or at least she used to before a state law banning the procedure after around six weeks

went into effect about two months ago.

I have unfortunately not been able to provide abortion care in Texas since this law has

gone into effect.

It has been devastating just like we expected.

Mojetti told MPR that she's working more at another practice in Oklahoma where pregnant

people from Texas have been traveling to.

You know, in Oklahoma City, I took this week.

I took care of three people from my own neighborhood here in Dallas, like literally my own neighborhood.

And I took care of people from as far as Galveston.

That's about eight or nine hour drive one way.

All this is happening as the US Supreme Court considers a legal challenge to the Texas

law.

And while the Court heard oral arguments in that case this week, its conservative majority

declined to suspend the Texas law in the meantime.
