Georgia mom declared brain dead taken off life support days after baby born

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, USA, JUN 17 – Georgia's near-total abortion ban kept brain-dead Adriana Smith on life support for nearly four months before emergency cesarean delivery of her 1-pound, 13-ounce baby boy, Chance.

  • Adriana Smith has been declared brain dead for over 90 days and will be taken off life support on Tuesday, according to Newkirk.
  • Georgia's Republican Attorney General Chris Carr stated that the law does not require life support for a brain-dead individual.
  • Carr clarified that removing life support is not an action with the purpose to terminate a pregnancy.
  • The decision to continue life support was painful but based on love for the baby, Chance, as reported by her family to the BBC.
