In India 18,000 women die every year due to unsafe abortions,. It's a sad reality that 8% of all maternal deaths are due to unsafe abortions. An estimated four million women undergo unsafe abortions every year in India — one-fifth of the global figures. A lady dies in Ireland because of its laws and the world is up in arm’s and yes it’s a very sad case that should not have happened may she RIP .
Yet these figures do nothing to the people of the world conscience
The above Country also needs to address its own Problem when it comes to abortion
Because Girls as young as 14 years old are having there lives destroyed because of the unsafe procedures of abortion and poor standards of healthcare within its own Country this is going on since India make abortion legal back in the 1970s .be pro or against Abortion there are many horror stories too .I sincerely hope Ireland can fined away to solve its stance on this matter as every Country on this planet is far from perfect And to add some people on this site need to think before they add comments
Seen one comment on the issue of this poor women in another location on this site
When the the two stories are different

Stevie: You need to study a little US history. I don't have time to waste on you--if you don't know the significance of Wounded Knee you're an even bigger fool than I had thought. And " schpincters"??? Go take some spelling lessons.

Opinions are like schpincters, everybody has one. If I shot you in your good knee would you be a cripple or just a dumb ass with two wounded knees?

abeliever--You correctly remind us that the whole hullabaloo is based on the words of one man, not even a native speaker of English, and in "testimony" given to a journalist 5000 miles away. No due process for all the medical professionals involved, no, hang 'em for murder (susan--the dope). What extraordinary fools are the hysterical posters, and feminists in Ireland who have got so worked up based on the unexamined testimony of one man. Truly, there is no limit to man's (and woman's) stupidity...

" wait for the results of the investigation"... Biggles: What you say is so patently correct and logical than I am astounded at the parliament of fools who are baying, as right beneath your post susan does, about "murder". I had not known that so many fools existed.

lokionline: Sounds like you need a self-esteem transplant. You're more worried about what foreign media say than about your own opinions.

My cousin, a strong practicing Catholic who had seven children to prove it, was diagnosed with breast cancer and had the left breast removed. She was cautioned by the surgeon that further pregnancies might activate cancer in the right breast. She and her husband asked the church for a dispensation in order to use birth control and were told "NO." Two years later, baby number eight was born and my cousin died six months later. I was 22 and, for the first time in my life, I questioned the Catholic Church. Hence, today, 43 years later, the only time I enter a Catholic Church is for a baptism, First Communion, Confirmation, Marriage or Funeral. How dare these flawed humans take people's lives in their hands? I will also say, though, that I lost a great deal of respect for my cousin, in continuing to listen to the Church.

More bigoted ignorance. The facts are not in, the people of Ireland voted, according to Natural Law, and the principle of double effect, that a woman whose life is threatened, can have the baby removed,since it is not intentional. same as if I as a surgeon wanted to transplant an idiot's brain, I might get her hair mussed.

This has become a worldwide story and Ireland comes across. like a third world country... again! The Dail have to get the outcome of this tragedy right and not obfuscate for 20 years like they have since 1992 and the "x" case.
