This isn't surprising to me. I know that this might not be strictly relevant to this community, but I thought I'd share anyway.
I live in a conservative state that has restricted a lot of women's health services(abortions). We had a really great family doctor, she was my wife's OB, she was my kids pediatrician, she even delivered my youngest. She moved to New Zealand over a year ago and we are still upset over it.
We have multiple friends and acquaintances that had to go to a neighboring state for a "procedure" because hospitals in my state refuse to do anything that medically is related to abortions. One friend had a miscarriage and needed a procedure to remove remaining tissue in her uterus and she had to go to another state, even though there wasn't an embryo in there anymore.
It's nuts. I'd love to get out of here, but we have young kids and all of our family is local.
It's so hard to leave. Not only is it expensive, but the family ties tie us up. My mother in law refuses to move away from my sister in law's kids. My wife refuses to move away from her mother, because she is elderly and needs our help. I owe a lifelong debt to my wife so I will not leave her.
My friend is moving to Uruguay. I would love to join him.
