===Death of Yeniifer Alvarez-Estrada Glick===

In early 2022, a pregnant woman named Yeniifer "Yeni" Alvarez-Estrada Glick came to the emergency room of Ascension Seton Edgar B. Davis, in [[LullingLuling, Texas]], reporting breathing problems, diabetes, hypertension, and a history of pulmonary edema. She came back and multiple times thereafter with increasing problems. She was never offered the option of terminating her pregnancy, which is a common procedure in a situation like Glick's. She died of hypertensive cardiovascular disease on July 10, 2022.

Her death was the subject of a 2024 exposé in ''[[The New Yorker]]''.<ref>{{cite news |first=Stephania |last=Taladrid |date=January 8, 2024 |title=Did an abortion ban cost a young Texas woman her life? |url=https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2024/01/15/abortion-high-risk-pregnancy-yeni-glick}}</ref>
