 <title>Mothers Day Blogswarm for Maternal Death</title>
 <link>http://www.blogher.com/mothers-day-blogswarm-maternal-death</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;The&lt;a href=&quot;http://cronespeaks.wordpress.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; ArchCrone&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://shortwoman.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;ShortWoman&lt;/a&gt; are proud to announce a Mothers Day blogging event called the Mothers Day Blogswarm for Maternal Death.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The purpose of this event is twofold:  first, it is a counter-protest to a staged &amp;quot;funeral&amp;quot; for embryos and fetuses that hae been aborted;  second, we plan to bring attention to the lives of actual women whose lives have been wrecked if not outright ended by the lack of timely, affordable, safe abortion services.  We need co-bloggers to write about this issue or sub-topics such as: state by state maternal mortality stats; Crisis Pregnancy Center misinformation; legislative misinformation/delays; Darfur; health care for women; adequate prenatal care; misinformation about birth control; parental consent laws; physician shortage/intimidation; &amp;quot;gag rules&amp;quot;; South Dakota; &amp;quot;trash can babies&amp;quot;; or anything else you can think of.    &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can learn more about the event &lt;a href=&quot;http://shortwoman.com/?p=571&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;http://cronespeaks.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/mothers-day-blogswarm-for-maternal-death/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.  Please contact us if you want more detailed information or would like to participate.  &lt;/p&gt;
