John Ankerburg show
April 1, 1990.
Two women who had abortions told their stories:
“If the doctor would’ve told me that I was four months pregnant, I don’t think that I would’ve had an abortion. I would’ve considered it murder at that point – the baby’s heart was beating, the baby is developed really, and I would have never had an abortion. The doctor did not tell me anything about the D&E being dangerous. The doctor didn’t discuss anything to me about any risks. I wasn’t told one word. Nothing about, you know my uterus being burst through, and all these things happened… now, to my knowledge, I find out that they do have another baby, that it could probably kill me. I would never have had an abortion if I knew these horrible things could happen to me, cause that’s the only way to explain it. It’s not worth going through.”
Another testimony on the same show:
“When I was examined the doctor said that he had been mistaken, the baby was far more advanced than he had thought, and that it was 15 weeks, and I was really just in shock. Within a minute, I was aborted, waited a few minutes, and then I got up to get dressed. And when I went over to the dressing room, I saw bucket of blood. And, my baby was in the bucket of blood, and the baby was not an inch big, the baby was as big as my hand, and it was a real baby. All I could think of was that I had murdered my baby… I started deteriorating emotionally that night. Over the next month, I cried, not normal cries, I cried from the bellows of the earth. I remember just leaning at the top of my staircase, just wishing I could throw myself down to the bottom. I remember thinking of jumping on the roof and jumping off. I thought of every method of suicide, I tried to consider doing. And I cried so deeply, so constantly, and so deeply, it was like the wail of a newborn baby when they cry and their fists are clenched, and they just cannot control the crying and somehow I thought I must. It was the most extraordinary crying I could ever see myself doing.”
