Clinic Counselor Describes Coping Skills

One abortion clinic counselor from Kansas said:

“This may sound like repression: however, it does work for me. When I find myself identifying with the fetus, and I think the larger it gets, that’s normal… then I think it’s okay to consciously decide to remind ourselves to identify with the woman. The external criteria of viability really isn’t what it’s about. It’s an unwanted pregnancy and that’s the bottom line.”

Breast Cancer Rate Among Poor Women in Washington State Rises After Change in Policy

“After Washington state began to provide public funding for abortions in 1970, the breast cancer rate among the poor rose by 53%, while the rate for rich women dropped by 1%.”

Mona Charen, Conservative Chronicle, November 2, 1994

Perhaps this rise in breast cancer correlating with the greater availability of abortion is more evidence that abortion raises the risk of this type of cancer.

Feminist Notes that Abortionists’ Motives May be Money, Sadism

Marge Brerer, in a presentation on “Feminist Perspectives and Reactions” contemplated the reasons a doctor might be in the abortion business. She wondered “whether it’s out of political commitment, or whether it’s for the money, or whether it’s a relatively sadistic way of punishing women.”

National Abortion Federation on Abortion Death

Barbara Radford, the National Abortion Federation president said in 1991:

“We had hoped that it (abortion patient’s death) wouldn’t get national publicity because of the political nature of all this. We want to make sure that women have choices when it comes to abortion services, and if you regulate it too strictly, you then deny women the access to service.”

Irish Professor Colin Gleeson on Abortion

One pro-choice professor said:

“Pretty soon you can imagine legislation prohibiting the washing of hands because thousands of cells are flaked off that could be turned into a stem cell and you can grow a foetus – so you’re killing a person. It’s attacks on women’s rights.”

Colin Gleeson “Chomsky criticises restrictive abortion laws” The Irish Times Apr 3, 2013

The average age for a baby who is aborted is 7-10 weeks. Here is a picture of an eight week old child.

Often Abortion Patients Don’t go to Follow-Up Appointments

“Maybe 50 percent of all women who have abortions decide not to return for follow-up after the procedure.”

Suzanne T. Poppema, M.D., “Why I Am An Abortion Doctor,” Prometheus Books, 1996, p. 134

How this lack of followup effects a women’s recovery is something the abortionist doesn’t comment on.
