Video Shows Baby Tinslee Awake and Moving Despite Hospital’s Attempt to Remove Life Support
Video Shows Baby Tinslee Awake and Moving Despite Hospital’s Attempt to Remove Life Support
Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth asked the Supreme Court of Texas on August 20 for permission to remove Baby Tinslee Lewis’s ventilator against her mother’s will. The Second Court of Appeals issued a comprehensive ruling in July that argued the 10-Day Rule is likely unconstitutional, and Tinslee’s mother, Trinity, will likely prevail on her claims against Cook Children’s Medical Center. Despite this, the hospital continues to seek court permission to remove Tinslee’s treatment over her mother’s objection. Cook Children’s admits Tinslee will die if the judges side with the hospital.
“Why do they want to kill my baby so badly?” Trinity responded. “They are telling the judges that Tinslee cannot move or interact, which is not true. Just watch the video. This is a recent video of Tinslee,” she added.

In December 2019, Cook Children’s argued in court, “She’s got less than five months to live.” Tinslee has now lived eight months (going on nine) after these dire assertions, celebrated her first birthday in February, and continues to grow.
Tinslee’s family is formally challenging the deadly Texas 10-Day Rule that the hospital is attempting to use to end Tinslee’s life. People from all over the world were shocked to find out about this uniquely evil state law that allows hospital committees to override a parent’s life or death health care decisions and remove wanted life-sustaining treatment.
For Tinslee to be a candidate for a different type of health care facility, she would require a tracheostomy. Commonly referred to as a trach, a tracheostomy is a routine procedure that is typically performed if someone will need mechanical ventilation support – i.e. breathing assistance – for longer than two weeks. Tinslee has been on a ventilator since August 2019. Court records reveal that nearly a year later, Cook Children’s continues to refuse to provide Tinslee a trach, indicating they will only acquiesce to her mother’s request if Tinslee is discharged to hospice and her mother agrees to a Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) order.
In other words, the hospital will perform the procedure only if they can guarantee Tinslee will die, not if she is afforded care elsewhere.
In addition to Tinslee, Texas Right to Life has helped seven other patients facing the deadly 10-Day Rule in 2020 so far. You can help provide legal counsel and patient advocacy to families by giving a financial gift to our Family Assistance Fund.
Genocide: China is Forcing Uighur Women to Have as Many as Eight Abortions
Genocide: China is Forcing Uighur Women to Have as Many as Eight Abortions
The plight of the Uighur women warrants attention not only as a woman’s issue, but also as a human-rights issue. And, once heard, it’s impossible to ignore.
On August 25, headlines revealed that the Trump administration is considering accusing China of genocide due to the country’s treatment of Uighur Muslims. The U.S. government and human-rights groups have already charged China with detaining one to three million minority Muslims in “camps.” Some of the most disturbing reports tell of the government’s abuse of women by weaponizing abortion, sterilization, and birth control. New reports introduce Uighur women who say they were forced to undergo as many as eight forced abortions and obstetricians who claim babies are killed even “after they’d been born.”
On August 17, Radio Free Asia (RFA) published a report by journalists Gulchehra Hoja and Shohret Hoshur. They interviewed a Uighur obstetrician, Hasiyet Abdulla, who confirmed forced abortions and infanticide in China. Before moving to Turkey, she spent more than a decade working in Xinjiang hospitals.
According to Abdulla, each hospital housed a “family-planning unit” that tracked “who had how many kids, when they’d given birth to them.”
Parents are allowed three children in rural areas and two in urban areas – and each child must be three to four years apart from the others. To enforce these rules, the hospitals participated in barbaric practices.
“There were babies born at nine months who we killed after inducing labor,” she said.
Medical staff performed abortions on some women who were “eight and nine months pregnant,” she claimed, and would “even kill the babies after they’d been born.”
The RFA referenced a report by Adrian Zenz, a senior fellow in China studies at the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, and published by the Jamestown Foundation. Among other things, it found that “Natural population growth in Xinjiang has declined dramatically” and “growth rates fell by 84 percent in the two largest Uyghur prefectures between 2015 and 2018.”
One Uighur woman said she escaped to Turkey in 2016 – but not before she was forced to abort her fourth child in 2004. Bumeryem said she was five months pregnant when officials “gave me an injection through my belly button.”

Not only that, but also she had to pay 200 yuan, or $29, for the abortion.
“It was a boy,” she remembered. “If my baby who was aborted were alive today, he’d be 15 years old.”
While in a recovery room, Bumeryem said she witnessed other women who underwent abortions at seven and eight months pregnant, as well as full-term.
On August 20, The New Arab journalist Gaia Caramazza shared her interview with Rahima Mahmut, a Uighur woman and human rights activist now living in the United Kingdom.
“As Muslims, we don’t kill babies – we can’t get abortions – but we were forced to,” she said, recalling that she was forced to have an intrauterine device inserted after having her son so that she could keep her job.
At the end of July, the Daily Mail published a piece by Ian Birrell, after he interviewed 25 Uighur women.
He began his report with the story of Amina Mamtimin, who discovered she was pregnant with her fifth child in 2016.
“I was very happy to be having a baby but also so scared,” she said. That’s because, when caught by the government, Uighur women “are forced to have abortions and then stopped from having more kids.”
Her family decided to escape, but only Mamtimin and her youngest daughter were able to obtain passports. She went ahead, to save their unborn child.
The rest of her family “never made it,” she said.
Another woman, Roshangul Tashmuhammad, recalled when officials found out that her sister-in-law was pregnant with her second child.
“Doctors said the baby had died in the womb so they forcibly aborted it,” she said. “But her first baby was so healthy we did not believe this.”
Zumret Abdullah trained as a nurse for four years at Urumqi Medical University before working three years in the maternity ward. During her time there, she estimated that she had witnessed 90 forced abortions performed on Uighur women.
“They take in the women, who are always crying,” she remembered. “Afterwards, they just threw the foetus in a plastic bag like it was trash.”
“One mother begged to die after her seven-month-old baby was killed,” she recalled. “It took three more days to give birth. It was a proper baby.”
Abdullah later quit her job.
“I was having mental problems, seeing babies in my dreams,” she said. “I still have nightmares.”
Rahima Muhammad, an exiled Uighur doctor, worked at a clinic for six years that she said performed up to 100 abortions per day. She secretly opened an illegal clinic to help women keep their babies.
So many women came that she “could not treat them all,” she said.
She once saw a woman who was seven months pregnant, and begged for her baby to be induced to escape an abortion. When the baby was born early, the little one had under-developed lungs.
“I took the baby to the hospital but it died,” Muhammad remembered. “I have never forgotten the baby’s face.”
After having her fourth child, she herself escaped to Istanbul.
Another woman, identified as “Sumayya,” said that after her third child, she underwent eight forced abortions.
“I would cry each time,” she remembered. “Usually the nurses would take it away, saying if it was a boy or a girl. One time when the baby came out, it was obviously a boy and I could hold his little hand. I slept with him all night, crying beside him.”
When she became pregnant again in 2016, she fled the country.
“How is this fair?” Sumayya wanted to know. “Why are we treated worse than animals just because we are Uighurs?”
It’s a question well worth asking.
Sanjay Gupta points out just how unusual Trump's Walter Reed visit really was (More Fake News?)
Sanjay Gupta points out just how unusual Trump's Walter Reed visit really was (More Fake News?)
President Donald Trump on Tuesday repeatedly denied that he suffered a “mini-stroke” and he did it in a response to a CNN report that never mentioned he might have had one.
But one of the network’s experts said Trump’s still-unexplained sudden trip to Walter Reed hospital last year was unusual on a number of levels.
“There’s a lot of things about this trip, this was back in November 2019, that have never made sense,” said Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent, adding:
“On a Saturday, the president goes to Walter Reed. It’s an unannounced visit. That doesn’t happen. The doctor, Dr. [Sean] Conley, gets in the vehicle with the president. That doesn’t happen. They go by ground instead of by air. That typically doesn’t happen.”
Gupta said the White House has capabilities that would allow most routine needs for medical care to be handled there.
“Typically, it comes down to two issues: Something to do with the brain or something to do with the heart,” Gupta said, noting that Conley had previously said the visit was not about the brain or the heart.
The unannounced trip to the hospital was mentioned in a new book by New York Times reporter Michael Schmidt, who wrote that Vice President Mike Pence was placed on standby in case he needed to assume presidential powers if Trump needed anesthesia.
That has happened on occasion in the past, such as when then-President George W. Bush had a colonoscopy and then-Vice President Dick Cheney was given temporary control.
Schmidt’s book said Pence did not need to assume those powers and did not state why Trump was in the hospital.
On Monday, CNN political analyst Joe Lockhart wondered on Twitter if it was a stroke. Trump denied it on Tuesday, tweeting about the issue three times throughout the day, including late in the evening:
Trump’s tweet linked to a CNN report that did not mention the possibility of a mini-stroke. Trump also had the White House physician release a statement denying he had suffered a stroke, mini-stroke or “any acute cardiovascular emergencies.”
The repeated denials caused “Strokeahontas” to trend on Twitter, a play on the racist nickname the president uses to deride Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.).
In another appearance on CNN, Gupta called Trump’s Walter Reed trip an “unusual visit” but added that the president was in the hospital for about an hour ― “which isn’t very long” ― and likely would’ve been there longer if he needed anesthesia.
“Was there something that was alarming that sort of resolved itself as the president got to the hospital or while he was there? Who knows?” Gupta said. “We don’t know and frankly there’s no requirement for them to disclose that either.”
Gupta also said Trump and his doctors had made wild claims about his health in the past, noting that his previous physician, Dr. Ronny Jackson, claimed Trump “might live to be 200 years old” if he had a better diet.
“There’s all these sorts of statements that don’t correspond with reality and it just makes you wonder what exactly is going on with the president?” Gupta said. “It’s very hard to piece together the health of this president.”
