GETALIFE-ITSYOURCHOICE: 40 Days for Life

Dr. La Verne Tolbert

Dr. La Verne Tolbert speaks about her time on the Board of Planned Parenthood :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfjwJBfPu6s&feature=player_embedded

Just a couple of excerpts from this youtube:

"Why is more necessary for women in the inner city to have an abortion?... I realized that Planned Parenthood world population had one goal, to control the population of ...those people who should not be procreating..."

"If there is a Planned Parenthood in your community... YOU are a target of abortion."

40 Days for Life

It's that time of year again! Time for the 40 Days for Life to begin! The start date is September 28, and if you want to learn more about getting this event going in your area, check out the following websight: http://www.40daysforlife.com/blog/

The 40 Days for Life is a peaceful prayer movement that is sweeping across America and some other countries! This is the movement which Abby Johnson contributes to her conversion to the pro-life movement after being a director of the Planned Parenthood in Bryan, TX- where the 40 Days for Life movement began!

BREAST CANCER AND ABORTION

There have been many studies on the relation between abortion and breast cancer. This is why many groups are now asking Komen to stop giving to Planned Parenthood- America's number one abortion provider. There seems to be a bit of a conflict of interest- and I am unsure why it is being ignored. There was a large study in 1981 which showed a 125% increase risk of breast cancer for ladies who were on BC pills 4+ years before birthing a child. For more on this, you can read:

http://www.lifeissues.net/writers/kah/kah_02bkbreastcancer.html

Other studies of this issue include just a few examples:
1957 nationwide research study in Japan (published in the English language Japanese Journal of Cancer Research) This report found that woman studied who had breast cancer had 3+ more times pregnancies that had ended in induced abortion.

A 1970 high profile, multinational WHO study, based at Harvard.The WHO’s own Bulletin, reported a disturbing trend that shows more risks for those who have abortions.
British Journal of Cancer (BJC) by Malcolm Pike and colleagues12 at the University of Southern California in 1981 found that women who had abortions before having any children had 140% increase for the risk of breast cancer.

Nancy Pelosi on "Meet the Press"

On August 24, 2008 on the "Meet the Press" show as Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi misspoke about the historical teachings of the Catholic Church with regards to abortion. It is difficult enough for people to understand what Catholics believe when so many of the Catholic politicians espouse pro-choice thinking, which is directly contrary to Catholic teachings, but when one stands up and misrepresents the Church directly, corrections need to be made! I heard it once said that if you are going to teach in the name of the Church, teach what the Church teaches!So, what does the Catholic Church teach regarding life:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Catechism of the Catholic Church 2270

"Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person- among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life.

"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.
Jer 1: 5

My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth.
Psalm 139: 15

Catechism of the Catholic Church 2271

"Since the first century the Church affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to moral law:You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish. Didache 2, 2- treatise that dates back to the first century

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are more, CCC 2273-2275 which can be read by googling them.

Now, with regards to Speaker Pelosi's comments, she said that as an ardent Catholic, she had studied this for a long time. You can watch this at:

http://www.prolifedallas.org/pages/Nancy_Pelosi_on_Meet_
the_Press

I am wondering where Mrs. Pelosi has been studying? The Catholic position and history of that position is quite easily found in the Catechism! It is my hope that the speaker studies a bit more on this subject and amends her position. Anything other than that is fragrantly going against that which the Catholic Church teaches!

BEN STEIN- JEWISH COLUMNIST

Jewish columnist Ben Stein sentiment in the May, 1998 issue of American Spectator magazine:... "[Pro-abortionists] cannot look at their handiwork or the handiwork they defend. Across the country, they shrink from photos of the babies killed in abortions. Through their mighty political groups, the pro-abortionists compel TV stations to refuse advertisements showing partial birth and other abortion artifacts. They will not even allow viewers (or themselves, I suspect) to see what their policies have wrought. They are, at least to my mind, like the Germans who refused to think about what was happening at Dachau and then vomited when they saw -- and never wanted to see again."

Margaret Sanger and her view of "irresponsible breeding"

Quotes from Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood:

Here's a few samples:

"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

Abby Johnson leaves Planned Parenthood

Carol Everett- former owner of clinics

Carol Everett, like Abby Johnson, left the abortion business- only many years ago! She has written the book: Blood Money: Getting Rich Off A Woman's Right to Choose.

I was lucky enough to see Carol Everett speak to a group of teens a few years back, and I will tell you that it was eye opening for me. During this conference, she discussed how the industry sells abortions, and how it is all about the money- NOT about helping the girls! In fact, she talked about how they prescribed low-dose birth control pills that were sure to fail, so more girls would come to them for abortions.

Please help spread the word! People need to open their eyes and see what is going on!

Alveda King- Niece of Dr. Martin Luther King

"He turned the baby around [in the womb] and brought it out feet first. That's one of the worse things for the mother that you can do. I was helping the doctor hold the baby [to keep it in the birth canal]. The other nurse got the instrument [a large syringe with a large needle], handed it to the doctor, and he inserted it into the base of the skull. Then he pulled the baby out. Its little hands were grasping. When the baby quit grasping, then he delivered it. He used the syringe to suction out the brains. That's more traumatic on the mother than if she had given a normal birth."

FORMER ABORTION PROVIDERS

"Sometimes we lied. A girl might ask what her baby was like as a certain point in pregnancy. Was it a baby yet? Even as early as twelve weeks a baby is totally formed, he has fingerprints, turns his head, fans his toes, feels pain. But we would say, 'It's not a baby yet. It's tissue, like a clot."--

Kathy Sparks, former abortion clinic worker

"It is extremely difficult to watch doctors lie, clinic workers cover up, and hear terrifying stories of women dragged out of clinics to die in cars on the way to the hospital without beginning to question the party line. I began to wonder if we were really caring for these women, or if we were just working for another corporation whose only interest was the bottom line."

Judith Fetrow, Former Planned Parenthood worker

"[The governing force behind the abortion industry is] money. It's a very lucrative business. It is the largest unregulated industry in our nation."--

Carol Everett, Former Clinic Director and Owner

FORMER ABORTION PROVIDERS

"I can stand here and tell you that during my time in training I never did encounter a true therapeutic abortion situation. I do recall a patient who had a "therapeutic abortion" for kidney disease at 32 weeks. The baby weighed over 3 lbs. and even in that day would have had about a 70% chance for survival if the labor had simply been induce and abortion not performed. "

"She was in such serious condition that all she could do was just look at me with very frightened eyes -- just look at me. And I tried so hard to help her. Blood was just pouring out of her like a faucet and I couldn't stop it... The other thing that ran through my mind was the doctor. He was a coward and he had run out on a patient that needed him....So they transported her to the hospital. I felt relieved that she was just gone and that the responsibility had been taken off of me. I then received a phone call from the hospital, which informed me that she had died."
Joy Davis- Former Abortion Provider

"I've never been able to come up with the words to describe the abortion procedure. There are no words to describe how bad it really is. It kills the baby. I've seen sonograms with the baby pulling away from the instruments that are introduced into the vagina. And I've seen D & E through 32 weeks done without the mother being put to sleep. Yes, they are very painful to the baby. But, yes they are very, very painful to the woman. I've seen six people hold a woman on the table while they did the abortion. "

"Woman Ate Rat Poison Before Giving Birth, Leading to Baby's Death"

This was a headline on yesterday's Huffington post. This is such a tragic story! Truly! But it is not more tragic than the abortions that are going on daily in the US! There are many late term babies being aborted in our country, and as a nation, we fight for that RIGHT! So when I look at the comments under this article, I become very confused! Some of the comments are:

"Either way if the child was born and was breathing and died later it's murder. Disgusting"

Gosh- how very many babies are born breathing and then die! We know from the survivors that there are some! And we hear from nurses that there are many who breathe and then die! Remember the story of Nurse Jill Stanek! If not, check it out below!

Another comment:

"This woman must suffer some form of psychosis."

Does that mean that this nation is suffering from psychosis?
I think we need to all take a close look at what we support!

A Pastoral Letter from Bishop Martino

http://www.priestsforlife.org/magisterium/bishops/martino-respect-life-sunday-2008.htm

" Catholics may not turn away from the moral challenge that abortion poses for those who seek to obey God’s commands. They are wrong when they assert that abortion does not concern them, or that it is only one of a multitude of issues of equal importance. No, the taking of innocent human life is so heinous, so horribly evil, and so absolutely opposite to the law of Almighty God that abortion must take precedence over every other issue. I repeat. It is the single most important issue confronting not only Catholics, but the entire electorate."

Most Reverend Joseph F. Martino, D.D., Hist. E.D. Bishop of Scranton

Testimony of Jill Stanek- Infants Protection Act of 2001

Below is partial testimony of Jill Stanek to the U. S. House of Representatives Judiciary Subcommittee:

I am a Registered Nurse who has worked in the Labor & Delivery Department at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois, for the past six years...Christ Hospital performs abortions on women in their second or even third trimesters of pregnancy. Sometimes the babies being aborted are healthy, and sometimes they are not. The abortion technique that Christ Hospital and other hospitals use, called "induced labor abortion," sometimes results in infants being aborted alive, because throughout this particular abortion procedure the fetus is not killed in the uterus. The focus of this method is to forcibly dilate a woman's cervix so that she will prematurely deliver a baby who dies during the birth process or soon afterward.

... There are a few ways to cause the cervix to open early. At Christ Hospital the most common way this is done is by the physician inserting a medication called Cytotec into the birth canal close to the cervix. Cytotec irritates the cervix. The FDA does not approve Cytotec for this use. It is a drug that is supposed to be taken by mouth to help control ulcers. The manufacturer of Cytotec issued a public letter in August 2000 warning that this drug may be harmful to women if used to induce labor, up to and including causing the uterus to rupture and causing death. But Christ Hospital continues to use Cytotec for pregnancy terminations.

After the cervix is prematurely dilated, the small, preterm baby drops out of the uterus, sometimes alive. In the event that a baby is aborted alive, he or she is given what my hospital calls "comfort care." "Comfort care" involves wrapping the baby in a blanket and offering him or her to the parents to hold until the baby dies. If parents do not want to hold their baby, as I have observed is most often the case, it is left to staff to care for the baby. Up until recently, staff options were to hold the baby until death or put the baby in our Soiled Utility Room if we got busy or if the baby lingered too long. Indeed, it is not uncommon for one of these babies to live for an hour or two or even longer. Last year alone, of the 16 babies that Christ Hospital states were aborted, I am aware of four who were born alive. Each of these babies - two boys and two girls - lived between 1-1/2 and 3 hours. At Christ Hospital one of these babies once lived for almost an entire eight-hour shift. At least two of the second-trimester babies who were aborted last year at Christ Hospital were completely healthy.
One night, a nursing co-worker was taking an aborted Down's syndrome baby who was born alive to our Soiled Utility Room because his parents did not want to hold him, and she did not have time to hold him. I could not bear the thought of this suffering child dying alone in a Soiled Utility Room, so I cradled and rocked him for the 45 minutes that he lived. He was 21 to 22 weeks old, weighed about ½ pound, and was about 10 inches long. He was too weak to move very much, expending any energy he had trying to breathe. Toward the end he was so quiet that I couldn't tell if he was still alive unless I held him up to the light to see if his heart was still beating through his chest wall. After he was pronounced dead, we folded his little arms across his chest, wrapped him in a tiny shroud, and carried him to the hospital morgue where all of our dead patients are taken.

Other co-workers have told me about incidences of live aborted babies whom they have cared for. A Support Associate told me about an aborted baby who was left to die on the counter of the Soiled Utility Room wrapped in a disposable towel. This baby was accidentally thrown into the garbage, and when they later were going through the trash to find the baby, the baby fell out of the towel and on to the floor. A nurse coworker told me about an abortion she was involved in where the baby was supposed to have spina bifida but was born with an intact spine. She said that what actually happened was that there was an incompletely formed twin who appeared as a mass on his brother's back during an ultrasound. The nurse told me that the father came into the Soiled Utility Room to see his son, took one look and saw that he had been involved in aborting his completely healthy baby, and turned and left the room without saying a word.

I was recently told about a situation by a nursing coworker who said, "I can't stop thinking about it." She had a patient who was just over 23 weeks pregnant, and she was not going to be able to complete her pregnancy to term. The baby was healthy and had up to a 39% chance of survival, according to national statistics. But the patient chose to abort. The baby was born alive. If the mother had wanted everything done for her baby, there would have been a neonatologist, pediatric resident, neonatal nurse, and respiratory therapist present for the delivery, and the baby would have been taken to our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for specialized care. Instead, the only personnel present for this delivery were an obstetrical resident and my coworker. After delivery the baby, who showed early signs of thriving, was merely wrapped in a blanket and kept in the Labor & Delivery Department until she died 2-1/2 hours later. Just three weeks after this baby was aborted, another mother came to the hospital under similar circumstances, carrying an identically aged baby and was offered the same options. But she said that she wanted her baby. And so present at her delivery were the aforementioned NICU team, and for the two days that I tracked her, that little girl lived.

When I testified before you last July, another nurse who worked at Christ Hospital, Allison Baker, also testified. Allison was not asked back today due to the new limit on the number of witnesses allowed. But last year Allison described walking into the Soiled Utility Room on two separate occasions to find live aborted babies left naked on a scale and the metal counter. She told about the patient that she herself had who didn't know that her baby might be aborted alive and who did not then want to hold him. After he was taken to the Soiled Utility Room she kept asking, "Is he dead yet? Is he dead yet?" (This testimony is being entered today into the Congressional Record.)

Lest you think that Christ Hospital's live birth abortion practice is uncommon, I am entering into Congressional Record today literature from a March 30, 2001, symposium sponsored by Waukesha Memorial Hospital in Wisconsin that was "reviewed and is acceptable" by the American Academy of Family Physicians, wherein Dr. Washington Hill writes that a "complication" of a mid-trimester labor induction is a "live birth." The American College of Obstetricians and gynecologists also gave credit hours to physicians for taking this course.After I testified last year, Christ Hospital stopped putting aborted babies to die in the Soiled Utility Room. This past December it unveiled its "Comfort Room." This is a small, nicely decorated room complete with a First Foto machine in case parents want pictures of their aborted babies, baptismal supplies if parents would like their aborted babies baptized, and a foot printer and baby bracelets if parents would like keepsakes of their aborted babies. There is also a wooden rocker to rock these babies to death. (Pictures entered into Congressional Record.)When Christ Hospital opened its Comfort Room, I was honestly galled.

It became clearer to me than ever that a law must be enacted that specifies that all babies born alive are indeed humans and American citizens with civil rights to equal protection. This is a point that is obviously not clear to extremists in our great country who believe that the right to obtain an abortion must be extended to include the right to commit infanticide. If a hospital named "Christ" does not willingly stop committing infanticide but handles public and legal scrutiny by merely trying to make those whose lives they're snuffing out more "comfortable," I have grave concerns about children whose lives are being ended at abortion clinics and hospitals where there is no spotlight of attention.
