How an Abortion Clinic is Run

Luhra Tivis who worked for the late George Tiller (late term abortionist) said the following:

“One of the ways he runs the clinic is, he’s got nursing staff that are nurse’s aides and LPNs who work in the exam rooms, where they do the sonograms, and they take blood for the bloodwork, and then he’s got the nurse practitioner, who goes down in the basement with him. And then he’s got an RN that stays at the motel overnight with them. He’s got people compartmentalized. And then there’s the office staff, who never have anything to do with the medical side. I was the only one on the office staff who regularly handled the medical records and typed them up. So he has people compartmentalized, so they don’t all have the facts of what’s going on. They just see their own little section. That way, he keeps them from getting too upset about what’s going on.”

Clinic Worker Describes Strange Behavior of Abortionist

Former employee of an abortion doctor in Louisiana:

“The word I got was that this particular doctor had a drug problem…The man definitely had some type of problem, because he would come to work and you could tell that he was either drunk or high on drugs or something. One day I recall telling him “Look, you don’t have any shoes on your feet. Why don’t you put your shoes on before you see patients?”

On Getting an Illegal Abortion before Roe

According to one abortion doctor:

“Prior to the passing of the abortion law, I don’t think there was ever a patient came to my office in the last 10 years who wanted an abortion and couldn’t get one, if they could afford to pay for it. And a perfectly legal one. For $100 the patient went to the psychiatrist and he would say, “You’re going to kill yourself if you don’t have this abortion?” “Yes.” “Okay, goodbye.” Then he dictates a nice long letter she’s suicidal. Two psychiatrists, $200. It was a farce.”

Postabortion Woman: “It Finally Hit Me”

A pro-life blog quoted this abortion story:

I was anxious, tired and starting to feel the symptoms of my pregnancy. I started having second thoughts, but I fought them off. I worked late to get things off of my mind, but I was 95% sure that I wanted to go through with this. To me this felt like a ball and chain weighing me down. I finally told my sister (the one with twins) and she cried on the phone and begged me not to go through with it. My ex-boyfriend brought the money over for the abortion. We talked some more about what the procedure was and how I would probably feel afterwards. He looked really sad and stated that if he was stable; he would help me with the baby, that is, if I really wanted it.”

“It’s finally a reality that I killed my child, my flesh and blood. I tell my close co-worker (who had an abortion as well) and she told me that I made the decision and I should just pray. To make a long story short, I cried every time I thought about it and especially when I talked to my mom about my nieces and nephew’s Christmas gift. This is a niece or nephew that my siblings will never see, a grandchild that my parents will never know and a child that I will never see grow up.”

….

“I do know that if I ever get pregnant again, I will not have another abortion. It’s just too painful.”

Clinics Should Be Called Places of “Healing and Care” Says Worker

“In an op-ed piece that appeared in the New York Times shortly after a gunman killed some employees and wounded others at two Brookline, Massachusetts, abortion clinics, a counselor at one of the clinics complained that the media kept referring to her workplace as an abortion clinic. “I hate that term,” she declared. At the end of the piece she suggested that her abortion clinic ought to be called “a place of healing and care.”

Woman Who Aborted Her Down Syndrome Baby: “Psychological Pain Is Enormous”

From a woman who aborted her down syndrome baby:

20 weeks

“The psychological pain is enormous. Deciding to end the life of a fetus you’ve wanted and carried for most of five months is no easy matter. The number of relatively late second trimester abortions performed for genetic reasons is very small. It seems an almost inconsequential number, unless you happen to be one of them.”

Tricia Andryszewski Abortion: Rights, Options, and Choices (Brookfield, Connecticut: The Millbrook Press, 1996) 53-54

Research shows that 99% of adults with down syndrome are happy with their lives.

Abortion Lies

Pro-Choice writer Margaret Carlson, on the many lies told by pro-choicers about the partial-birth abortion ban:

“…we all lie, to ourselves and one another, in hearings and in print, at dinner and on Nightline, lest we give one inch in a war over abortion that rages on.”

Disabled Children Considered “Medical Errors”

Dr. Marie Peeters-Ney, director for medical research of the Michael Fund:

“The birth of a child with a chromosomal anomaly is now widely considered as a medical error and in certain countries lawsuits are filed against doctors because they failed to diagnose the ‘condition’ in utero. In an insidious manner, mentalities are changing and people now regard persons with a handicap as someone who should not be there.”

Prelude to the New Holocaust, Part ?, (The MOD Brings the Eugenic Spirit Home),” The Michael Fund (a prolife alternative to the March of Dimes), 500 A Garden City Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15146, (724) 823-6380, www.michaelfimd.org

down syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality which can be detected with amniocentesis and some estimates say up to 92% of all down syndrome babies are aborted.

Abortion Pill Like “Giving Birth”

“It was quite a big thing, like giving birth, so I wish that I had been there for her. It was a bloody mess. Wendy went through contractions, just like a pregnancy. We didn’t think it would be quite like that.”
