Brain Death, Abortion, and the Adriana Smith Case
Dr. Stroud talks to bioethicist Fr. Ryan McCarthy about the tragic case of Adriana Smith, a Georgia woman declared brain dead in February 2025 but controversially kept on life-support while her unborn baby continued to grow until he was able to live outside his mother's womb. Fr. McCarthy and Dr. Stroud unpack the truth behind the controversy, including brain death, patient autonomy, abortion, and what the media narrative gets wrong in the whole discussion.
