The challenges of congenital syphilis are substantial and completely preventable. What we see in the NICU is hydrops that can not only be fatal, it very hard to treat requiring high level intensive care with many interventions.

This is avoidable

This story is horrifying. Not just because of the sexual abuse, the serial rape, the terror, extortion and murder.

It is most maddening because it is known, and ignored, and routine.

I ask you to please read it.

Neither of Miranda’s twins were expected to survive after birth.

She couldn’t afford to leave the state, so she continued her pregnancy in accordance with Texas law.

I followed Miranda through to the bitter, horrible end, with Shelby Tauber on photos.
