What happened to Mareena Silva?
It’s been just about 9 months since we learned of Mareena Silva, the woman in Colorado who went to Safeway to pick up an antibiotic prescription and was instead given methotrexate, which is an anti-cancer drug that works by hindering the development of fast-growing cells.
Unfortunately for her, “fast-growing cells” is a great description of a fetus. So, last we heard, she was waiting to see how damaged her very-much-wanted baby would be. At worst, the drug can trigger a miscarriage (and has even been used for abortions).
A Google search hasn’t turned up anything yet. Does anybody know if her baby was born healthy? Any updates on the story or the inevitable lawsuit and/or settlement?
