Former abortion worker: abortionists talked badly about patients

Former abortion worker Annette Lancaster says the following about abortionists in her clinic:

“Physicians often talked badly about patients while performing procedures on them. Sometimes physicians would not use the proper amount of sedation. They would tell the patient they were providing them with certain medications, but they were out, so the patient didn’t get it.”

Woman filled with grief after her boyfriend pressures her into an abortion

A postabortion woman told the following story:

 

“I got an abortion on March 4, 2017. I knew I didn’t want one, I knew it was wrong, and I knew it was a mistake. I’m 21 and a senior in college. I’m graduating in May and so is my boyfriend. He’s the logical one, and I’m the emotional one. I wanted to keep my baby, but he refused to even consider it. Although I know he would help me raise the baby in the end, he would resent me and even told me how miserable he would be. I kept saying, “I don’t want to have an abortion; I want to keep my baby; this is wrong; I’m going to regret this; you’re forcing me to do this,” etc, etc. He still kept saying we had to. He got up and drove me to the clinic… I went in still saying I didn’t want to do it.

 

Right before I went back, my boyfriend finally told me, “If you get back there and decide you can’t, I’m not forcing you to do this.” But his face was saying, “You have to get this abortion.” Minutes later, they called me back and what was I supposed to do—ruin my boyfriend’s life? He made it very clear that’s what I’d be doing if I kept the baby. …. I made the biggest mistake of my life, and it’s something I’m never going to forgive myself for.

 

I can’t stop crying. I hate myself. I have a stuffed animal I keep dressing up in the onesie I was given at a Women’s Care Center when I got my pregnancy test. They were so kind there. I don’t want anyone else to ever have to feel this way. I wish I had at least postponed the appointment a few weeks, so I would have been able to have more time. Now it’s too late, and there’s nothing I can do to ever get my baby back. I’m never going to hold him, hug him, kiss him, care for him, feed him, take him to his first day of school, take him to college, watch him grow up, read him stories, or play with him. And those are only a few things I’m never going to get to do because of abortion.”

New pro-lifer: the pictures opened my eyes

A woman who saw pictures of aborted babies on the Priests for Life website now opposes abortion. She says:

“I always thought I couldn’t really have an opinion about someone else having an abortion, as I never knew their circumstances… I also work at the Children’s hospital here, and see so many sad situations, and I would never wish death on any of my wonderful kids that I work with, but you see how neglected and abused they’ve been all their life because their mom was raped or mom wasn’t responsible. HOWEVER- I’ve changed my mind. I happened onto your pictures, and bawled the whole way through… We’ve had babies as small as one pound born to us, and their parents and families pray, and trust, and just want the baby to live, yet perfectly healthy babies are ripped cold-blooded from the womb. I’m devastated. The pictures really opened my eyes, and I am now COMPLETELY against abortion. I would rather open my home to those babies and take them in myself, than to know they were killed. How is abortion NOT considered murder? Anyway, I just wanted to thank you, and share some of my thoughts. Thank you for your time, and God bless your efforts. — Jessica”

Abortionist compares abortion to war, other forms of killing

Pro-choice activist Judith Arcana, who has done abortions, says:

“I think abortion belongs in the same context as assisted suicide, euthanasia, even war and domestic self-defense – all situations that require the taking of life with moral, ethical knowledge and acceptance of responsibility.”

Pro-life activists document horrific conditions in closed abortion facility

Cheryl Sullenger of Operation Rescue describes an abortion facility that her group purchased. When they entered the building, they discovered that conditions inside were filthy. She describes below:

“I was working with Operation Rescue when it purchased an NAF approved abortion facility in Wichita, Kansas, in 2006 and evicted the abortion business. When Troy [Newman] ==took possession of the building, he and I, along with a couple of our friends, went in to take our first eager look around. The clinic was filthy. From the carpet to the walls to the ceiling, everything was worn, outdated, and dirty. Plumbing leaked. Mold grew in the ceiling where the roof chronically dripped. The electrical system was hazardously out of code. The junction box could not be closed due to the obstruction of a water pipe that extended from the water heater, which had been dangerously installed under it.

The entire office was permeated with a putrid odor. Under a dirty sink was an industrial garbage disposal that was clogged with rotting material, possibly human in origin. That sink was the source of the stench.

In the 23 years that the abortion business had occupied that building, never had a representative from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment ever darkened the doorway of that clinic, and it showed. However, on the window separating the receptionist from the patient waiting area, there was a proudly displayed sticker indicating that the facility had met NAF’s so-called “standards” that same year.”

Abortion worker has nightmares after counting fetal parts

Former abortion worker Jewels Green describes the nightmare she had while she was working abortion clinic:

“After an abortion, the instrument tray was passed through the window in the wall into the autoclave room. The other thing that passed through was the Jar. It held the precious contents that just moments before had comfortably resided inside the mother’s womb.

It looked like an oversized glass pickle jar. It was emptied next to me on the countertop: teeny tiny hands and feet and arms and legs and a rib cage and a spine and a hollow, flattened, misshapen, torn head.

I saw it all.

I smelled it all.

Every time. Up to 30 times a day, four days a week…..

I started having nightmares, haunted by tiny, limbless phantom babies. I was floating down a narrow stream with miniature body parts strewn on either shore – and then I’d begin to sink. I’d flail and gasp and go under.”

Activist: clinics try to make abortion “nice”

Pro-life author and activist John Cavanaugh–O’Keefe writes:

“The abortion clinic personnel make a great effort to see to it that abortion appears to be gentle and polite and nice. They surround it with cookies and soda, with lounge chairs and a cheery decor. But the façade is destructive, not only of the truth, but also of the women who, even if they have the abortion, still will desperately need at some point to come to grips with what they have done. In due time, they must see clearly that they are parents and that their children are dead.”

Postabortion woman: I wish I could turn back time

One postabortion woman says:

“I’ve always loved babies, and I love my boyfriend—although we’ve only been together for less than a year. But I let my fear get the best of me…I had my abortion at 11 weeks, 2 days, on the 7th of February, 2017. I waited over a month after finding out because I struggled. But I did it, and it is the worst decision I’ve ever made, I wish I walked out of the hospital that morning. I took my baby home with me to bury and that just deepened my pain—but I don’t regret that. I cry and I get angry a lot. It’s a huge thing to hold on your shoulders. I’m constantly looking up pictures of what my baby would have looked like right now if I had kept him or her. Nothing has ever hurt me this bad; I feel so stupid. I wish I could turn back the clock. BE SURE ABORTION IS WHAT YOU WANT. Don’t let the pressure get to you. Ugh. It just sucks so bad, thinking about my little baby all the time.”

British Victims of Abortion inundated with letters from postabortion women

Pro-life activists Melanie Symonds and Phyllis Bowman from British Victims of Abortions (BVA),  write:

“The plan has always been ultimately to provide a national telephone helpline along with one-to-one counseling with group backup. Another area which opened up was the opportunity to participate in media chat shows and contribute to magazine articles. Each time we had any coverage and described abortion damage, we were inundated with either telephone calls or letters requesting more information and help. This again reinforced our belief in the extent of damage women were suffering…

If the condition is not understood or even acknowledged, how on earth can the problem be addressed and women helped to come to terms with their loss and pain?”

Melanie Symonds, Phyllis Bowman And Still They Weep: Personal Stories of Abortion (The SPUC Educational Research Trust, 1996) xvi

if women weren’t sometimes traumatized by their abortions, there would be no need for groups like this.
