I was accidentally given abortion pills while undergoing IVF: 'They just killed my babies'
How ‘posthumous conception’ is changing motherhood: ‘It’s not as offensive as it was’UK’s first womb transplant deemed ‘massive success’: ‘Over the moon’
After taking two doses, the IVF patient checked the bottle she was given from the North Vegas pharmacy.“They just killed my baby … Both my babies, because I transferred two embryos.” “It [the error] would have been caught because then they would have had to have the medicine in their hand,” Thomas said. “And they would have said, ‘Oh, this is Misoprostol or Cytotek, have you taken this before?’ And I would have said, ‘No.’ ”

Health care providers aim to reach Hispanic people in need of servicesFor the last 15 years, Oscar Romero Alba has faced issues with his kidneys. For the past four years, that's meant dialysis.He says when he first got the news about dialysis, he thought it meant he was going to die.

'Our typical patients might see a pharmacist once every month or so, but they see them 2-3 times a week.'In Oscar's case, the team did something else, 'I thought I was going to have to do dialysis for life, because there was no way to pay for insurance.'He says the medical team helped point him toward a state insurance plan a plan, he says, that lets him receiv
