Diane, a clinic worker, says that not that many men accompany women to their abortions:

“But not all that many men come. Maybe one out of four women has a man with her or waiting at the end. I’d say about two out of four come with a woman friend. And although we push them to have someone with them, about one out of four women insists on coming alone.”

Louise Kapp Howe Moments on Maple Avenue: The Reality of Abortion (New York: Warner Books, 1984) 48 – 49

What a terrible, lonely experience it must be for a woman who has no one to go with her!

Dr. John Parsons, in an interview from Kings College Hospital, London, The Universe, Sunday, March 2, 1997:

“The pro-life movement is having a negative impact on abortion. Sometimes women change their minds on the operating table and then we lose money! We have to run a cost-effective termination service. We have abortion on request now. It’s what I believe and what I practice. A woman has a right to abort – whether it’s to go on a skiing holiday or whether the fetus is disabled.”

Abortionist Henry Morgantaler wrote about one couple who came to him for an abortion, which he did. He discusses the case of “Mary Ann” who, along with her boyfriend, is a medical student. They plan to marry:

“Their relationship is good and stable, but their careers are very important to them both and they feel that a failure in the birth control method they were using should not be allowed to alter their plans for the future. They intend to have two children, but much later on in their lives. Abortion seemed a logical solution to their problems…

When a couple chooses to prevent pregnancy by using a method of birth control and the method fails, it is logical for them to opt for abortion. When a woman is responsible enough to take precautions against pregnancy and these have failed, it is only fair and just that she be given the opportunity, through terminating her pregnancy, of setting right the accident.”

Henry Morgentaler Abortion and Contraception (New York: Beaufort Books, Inc., 1982) 39

Morgantaler did abortions at this stage.

The Hippocratic Oath states “I will not give a woman a pessary to cause abortion.” however, one abortionist says:

“I get absolutely no joy whatsoever doing any abortion, but we have a duty to an individual. The Catholic physician is aborting the Hippocratic Oath more than I am in not giving a woman the choice.”

One woman who aborts babies says:

“One of the things I’ve discovered, particularly in working in the southeast, is there are providers who identify themselves as Christian and actually bring their Christianity into the space of abortion. Some providers actually pray with individuals….”

An abortionist says:

“The little biological body [of a preborn baby] is not a human soul and it doesn’t bother me taking a little biological life. I am opposed to destroying a living thing, I hate to shoot a bird or step on a bug or cut a beautiful plant, but I do. These things [abortions] are not done lightly. A lot of consideration and prayer is called for.”

Abortionist Nancy Stanwood:

“I am fortunate to have met many wonderful mothers. These women understand what it means to raise a child well. They make daily sacrifices to keep their children physically and emotionally healthy and happy. As a new mother myself, I find their commitment inspiring.

What I know about these mothers, though, won’t be celebrated on Mother’s Day. They came to me to have abortions….

In my experience, these mothers have abortions to meet their responsibilities for their children at home….

I became a mother seven months ago. By giving birth, I feel I made a solemn promise. I will be responsible for the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of this beautiful little creature for the next 18 years and beyond. I will put her needs first, I will always think about her welfare, I will make sacrifices for her.

This is the promise we celebrate on Mother’s Day. Many women keep this promise by having abortions.”
