Adriana Smith, a 31-year-old woman from Georgia, was declared brain dead due to blood clots in her brain and has been on life support since February. After approximately six months of pregnancy, her baby was delivered via emergency cesarean section and named Chance, weighing nearly 1.8 pounds. The family is hopeful for the baby's recovery. Controversy arose regarding state laws that affect life support and abortion, with Georgia AG Chris Carr stating that removing life support doesn't equate to terminating a pregnancy.
"He's expected to be okay. He's just fighting. We just want prayers for him." - April Newkirk on baby Chance.
"Removing life support is not an action 'with the purpose to terminate a pregnancy,'" said Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr.
