This week’s episode is a rapid response to the troubling story that quickly spread across X (formerly Twitter). YouTuber and social media influencer Jesse Ridgeway publicly shared that he and his wife aborted their child, who had been diagnosed with Down syndrome, at approximately 21 weeks. He went on to defend the decision in a lengthy, detailed post, one that sparked significant backlash, particularly from those within the pro-life movement.
As life-affirming medical professionals, we oppose eugenics in all forms, and especially when it targets individuals with disabilities. We believe every life has inherent value and dignity, regardless of diagnosis.
In this special episode, Dr. Susan Bane is joined by AAPLOG member and maternal-fetal medicine specialist Dr. Kerri Brackney for a thoughtful and important discussion. Together, they address what true pregnancy counseling should look like following a Down syndrome diagnosis, the differences between screening and diagnostic testing, the importance of informed consent, and much more.
We invite you to listen to this conversation so you can be better equipped to speak with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
