Stacey Abrams Instagram – This is my youngest sister, Dr. Jeanine Abrams McLean. Among her many spectacular roles, including being a biologist and serving as president of a nonprofit organization, Jeanine is the wonderful mother to two of my nephews. Living close by, I now have a deep understanding of Roblox, Beyblades and Minecraft. Jeanine also has a story that far too many women in Georgia understand and share. Right before Thanksgiving 2014, I received a late night call from Jeanine. Her voice was strained as she asked if I could come over immediately because she needed to go to the hospital with her husband, and my nephew was fast asleep. The day before that call, Jeanine had visited her doctor for her 10-week pregnancy check up, but the doctor could not detect a heartbeat. Still, she was told she didn’t have to worry just yet. The next day, she began cramping — she thought she had a stomach bug. But by that night, it was clear something was terribly wrong. I rushed over and stayed with my nephew as Jeanine hurried to the hospital. That night, my youngest sister had a miscarriage. Yet, what followed this tragedy was a careless series of acts that exacerbated her trauma. Despite the medical records of her miscarriage, Jeanine received not one, but two calls in the span of a week, from the same nurse, who seemed oblivious to what she’d endured. What terrifies me is that in Brian Kemp’s Georgia, that second call could have been from a sheriff or an state investigator, someone who heard that my sister had an abortion. Because that’s what Kemp’s law allows. Miscarriage is medically termed a “spontaneous abortion.” Countless women like Jeanine have suffered from miscarriages — or as my mother has said, the loss of a promise. To have that loss compounded by the cruelty of Brian Kemp’s abortion ban is unconscionable. And the lack of humanity that keeps him silent is appalling. I want my sister and women across Georgia to know that I will be a governor who protects them, cares for them and more importantly, I will fight for them. I will repeal the six-week abortion ban and I will defend a woman’s right to medical care and privacy. As governor, I will always protect our rights.
