Husband of Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleader Who Died of Sepsis After Stillbirth Speaks Out Against 'One-Size-Fits-All' Prenatal Care

Krystal "Krissy" Anderson died of sepsis on March 20 following the stillbirth of her daughter

The husband of the former Kansas City Chiefs cheerleader who died in childbirth following the stillbirth of her daughter is speaking out.

Clayton told ABC News: "One of the issues that I guess I have with the system overall is Krystal is 40, and she's Black, and we'd had a loss before, but even then they say you know, you can't start a plan with maternal-fetal medicine or the high-risk maternity doctors until you get to week 14."

"All pregnancy is high risk, especially, more so, when you're a woman of color, or you're older, and they should be treated that way from the start," Clayton told ABC News.

1. "Go home and die, female" ... Remind me what century this is?

[Farmer-Rick]

3. It's 1864 according to Arizona.

I think her partner should file a lawsuit.

She was high risk and they made her wait 4 weeks before even looking at her again.

"Maternal sepsis is the second leading cause of pregnancy-related death in the U.S." They waited until she got sepsis to do anything.

These forced birth enthusiaists are really messing with women's healthcare.

The medical community is much more hesitant to see pregnant patients as much anymore. It may mean they have to decide to save the woman's life and go against their Christian religion, or force birth on her and watch her die.

10. The "rich" history of Arizona

[Farmer-Rick]

15. Oh holly hell

What a F*cked up excuse for a human that pedo serial rapist was. And Alito has brought back that piece of crap's whole ideology and has instituted it as law. I don't know which man is worse.

[littlemissmartypants]

20. They're both the same man and their ilk are everywhere. ❤️

4. I am not an Attorney... but there MUST be someway to sue someone, some group, someone! For wrongful deaths.....

.... when we know medical science CAN prevent these unnecessary deaths with timely medical intervention.

2. Checks all the boxes for the far right

They managed to kill:

One person in an inter-racial marriage
A mixed-race child

Why would anyone expect right wingers to care about this couple?

[LiberalFighter]

5. White Republican politicians know everything

Outside their own education.

Which is why...

Government is not the problem.
Republicans are the problem.

[Tansy_Gold]

6. This is why . . . .

. . . .I say with a clear conscience that I HATE the current Republican party and anyone who supports it.

And I don't want to hear any "Hate is such a strong word." Or "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothin' at all."

I hate them. They are killing women in the name of their "god," who apparently doesn't give a shit about women, women of color, mixed-race children, people who love people of color, people of color, people . . . . well, anyone who isn't a straight white christian (?) male. I hate them, and I'm not going to apologize for it.

8. And they're just getting warmed up. Sickening. ❤️

18. "Their" god. The one who tells them not to lie and kill. What a joke they are.

9. My wife was considered high risk at 35

She was well cared for from her first visit.
Of course she is white and we live in a blue state, but that didn't have anything to do with this, right?

[druidity33]

11. At 38 my wife's pregnancy...

was considered geriatric.

What's up with that?

[soldierant]

13. Based on that determination,

did the medical and med support people treat her with more concern than they would treeat a mother to be who was not "geriatric"?

Because if they did, I'm all for it. I'm for things whi encourage all of society to treat pregnant persons as the fragile perons they are..

[onecaliberal]

19. Mine was at 35, and that was years ago.

[Jacson6]

12. I feel their pain.

I was married forty years ago and my wife and I had a problem pregnancy. My wife made it through, but it was hell to deal with. God Bless Them.

[live love laugh]

14. The cost of living in red states is especially high for POC...

from the judicial benches to the maternity wards.

[Lulu KC]

16. The hospital is in Kansas

Kansas is in most ways a red state, but does not have an abortion ban until 21 weeks, 6 days, unless the mother's health is in danger.
It is affiliated with the Seventh Day Adventist church, which is (from what I can put together) opposed to abortion unless the mother's health is in danger. I am very curious about how they draw that line.
There are other hospitals in that county that are not affiliated with any anti-choice religions.
It will be interesting to see how this plays out legally.

17. As I posted in one of my threads-Republicans are killers and destroyers of happiness

As long if the bad things are not happening to them for example student loan forgiveness matched against PPL loans for given sometimes in the millions
